Blue Jays Notes: Clement, DH, Rotation
Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins spoke with the Toronto beat on Wednesday, addressing various aspects of the roster.

Lyon Richardson Elects Free Agency
Right-hander Lyon Richardson elected free agency after being outrighted by the Brewers, according to the MLB.com transaction log. Milwaukee designated him for assignment last Friday.

D-Backs, Michael Soroka Have Mutual Interest In Reunion
The Diamondbacks will show interest in bringing Michael Soroka back in free agency, reports John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM. The feeling is mutual, as the righty told reporters (including Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports) he’d “absolutely love to return” after the Snakes were eliminated on the final day of the regular season. Soroka had […]
Previewing The Upcoming Center Field Class
With the regular season in the books, MLBTR is taking a position-by-position look at the 2026-27 free agent market. Next up are the center fielders.

Daulton Varsho Undergoes Wrist Surgery
The Astros announced Wednesday that outfielder Daulton Varsho underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left wrist.

Tigers Notes: McGonigle, Keith, Free Agent Bats
Tigers manager A.J. Hinch and president of baseball operations Scott Harris addressed the media earlier this week (video link via the Tigers on X).

The matchup-conscious Tigers have shuffled […]
Joe Mantiply Elects Free Agency
Veteran left-hander Joe Mantiply is a free agent, per his MLB.com transactions page. The reliever was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays last week. Mantiply passed through waivers unclaimed.

Cardinals Notes: Third Base, Burleson, Walker
The Cardinals spent most of the 2025 season searching for a solution at third base. The Opening Day starter, Nolan Gorman, was demoted by June. Offseason acquisition Ramon Urias was injured for most of the year. St. Louis trotted out four different players for 70+ plate appearances at third base. None produced an OPS above […]
D-backs Outright Jesús Sánchez
Outfielder Jesús Sánchez cleared waivers after being designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks and was assigned outright to Triple-A Reno, per the team’s transaction log at MLB.com. He’ll have the right to become a free agent, which he’ll surely take. Sánchez’s time with the Snakes was brief. Arizona claimed him off waivers on Sept. 14 […]

Under the current postseason format (introduced in 2022), the winner of Game 1 in the Wild Card round is 15-1 in the series (h/t Jeff Passan of ESPN). The only team to lose the first game and win the series was the Yankees over the Red Sox in 2025. 1. Rice carries NY offense Cam […]

The Yankees crushed the Red Sox in a 9-0 rout in Game 1 of the Wild Card Series, putting Boston in immediate do-or-die mode in the best-of-three series.

NL Injury Notes: Freeman, Henriquez, Elder, Ortiz, Woodruff
The Dodgers don’t begin their quest for a threepeat until the NLDS begins on Saturday, and the veteran team is benefiting from five full days off.

12 Players Elect Free Agency
Now that the season is over, we’ll start seeing several players choose to become minor league free agents.

Liam Hendriks Announces Retirement
In a very amusing and self-deprecating post on his Instagram page, veteran reliever Liam Hendriks has announced his retirement after 14 big league seasons. The 37-year-old Hendriks cited the fans, his family (“a huge thank you to my wife for always believing in me, which was honestly a terrifying display of delusion on her part“), […]

Mickey Gasper To Undergo Biceps Surgery
Red Sox catcher/first baseman Mickey Gasper hit the 10-day injured list a few days ago with a right biceps strain.

The Royals are planning to replace hitting coach Alec Zumwalt, reports Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. He’s being reassigned within the organization and not fired, however.
