Kyle Schwarber and the Philadelphia Phillies have agreed to terms on a five year, $150 million deal, per multiple reports. In addition, Edwin Diaz and the Los Angeles Dodgers have agreed to terms on a three year, $69 million deal, per multiple reports. The hot stove, as they see, is heating up. Schwarber, who turns […]

Breaking News: Kyle Schwarber is Back

He’s back! According to Jeff Passan, the Phillies are finalizing a five-year, $150 million deal with 2025 NL MVP runner up and home run king Kyle Schwarber. Schwarber’s 2025 was the best season of his 11-year career so far. His 56 homers led the NL and his 132 RBI led all of Major League Baseball. […]

2026 NFL Mock Draft: Giants Trade Top Pick, Rams Add Quarterback, Bears Get EDGE Help

With Week 14 of the NFL season in the books, let’s take a look at another 2026 NFL Mock Draft. With the Giants now sitting at the top spot, would they trade down to a quarterback-needy team? It’s certainly possible, if not likely in my opinion. Plus, the Rams add their Matthew Stafford replacement, the Bears address their EDGE issues, and a whole lot more. Let’s get to it. 2026 NFL Mock Draft 1. New York Jets (via NYG): QB Fernando Mendoza – Indiana If the Giants ...

Hall of Fame Polls:Dustin Pedroia

I’m going to skip a few, because I doubt anyone would consider them Hall of Famers. Matt Kemp had a nice 15-year career. He hit .284/.337/.484 with 287 home runs, 184 stolen bases and a 21.6 bWAR. He had one great season, an 8.0 bWAR. He hit .324/.399/.586 with 39 home runs and 126 RBI […]

Astros Hot Stove: Updates from Day 1 of Winter Meetings

News and Rumors from Day 1 of the Winter Meetings: Baz’ power stuff seemed to return last year, his first full year after returning from Tommy John surgery, but he faded in the second half. His has some major stuff however, and the Astros are known for maximizing pitching talent. Coming off a down year, […]

Edwin Díaz signs with Dodgers, per reports

For the second offseason in a row, the Dodgers decided to swim in the deep end of the relief pitching pool. This time, it’s signing closer Edwin Díaz, per both Will Sammon and Katie Woo at The Athletic. It’s a three-year, $69 million contract for Díaz, per Jeff Passan of ESPN. Díaz had a 1.63 […]

Kyle Schwarber to sign 5-year, $150 million deal with Philadelphia Phillies

The flirtation between the Cincinnati Reds and free agent slugger Kyle Schwarber appears to have been just that – a flirtation. News broke on Tuesday morning that Schwarber will be re-signing with the Philadelphia Phillies for a reported $150 million over five years, with Mark Feinsand of MLB.com doing the reporting. It’s a crushing blow […]

Yankees 2025 Winter Meetings Rumors: Day Two

Well, day one at the 2025 Winter Meetings were mostly a bust. There were rumors, but not exactly many of the more juicy variety, and the day was almost completely devoid of actual activity. We did at least hear from Yankees brass, with Brian Cashman telling us that while he doesn’t feel they have as […]

Reds trade interest in Astros CF Jake Meyers raises questions

Charlie Goldsmith, former Enquirer reporter (and current purveyor of Charlie’s Chalkboard on Substack), caught up with Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona at MLB’s Winter Meetings in Orlando, picking the future Hall of Famer’s mind on a number of topics ranging from Kyle Schwarber to managing the overall roster of the club through the grind of […]

Oh Cool, Edwin Diaz is the Latest Superstar to Sign with the Dodgers (UPDATE)

The Los Angeles Dodgers have done it again. Another superstar joins a stupidly-loaded, extremely-expensive team. One of the best closers in baseball is signing with the Dodgers just a year after the Dodgers tried to get the best-available closer in Tanner Scott (who chose the Dodgers over the Cubs, struggled, and is now bumped from his job). Sound the trumpets, it’s Edwin Diaz to the Dodgers: Edwin Diaz and the Los Angeles Dodgers are in agreement on a deal, league source tells The A...

World Baseball Classic: Orioles Gunnar Henderson named to Team USA

When the World Baseball Classic gets rolling next spring, there will be at least one Oriole to follow. On Tuesday morning, several more names were added to the Team USA roster, with one being relevant for O’s fans: shortstop Gunnar Henderson. Henderson may end up being the third baseman for the USA squad, rather than […]

BREAKING: Kyle Schwarber is Staying with the Phillies

FINALLY. The first really major move of the week is going down, and it’s one that many felt could be holding up an outflow of additional movement. Old friend and prodigious slugger Kyle Schwarber is staying with the Phillies on a new five-year deal. © Isaiah J. Downing-Imagn Images Kyle Schwarber Sticks with Philly Here’s the report, broken first by Jeff Passan: News: Kyle Schwarber is coming back to Philadelphia, agreeing to a five-year, $150 million contract that giv...

The Houston Astros have signed right-handed pitcher Ryan Weiss to a one-year Major League contract that also includes a club option for 2027. The announcement was made by Astros General Manager Dana Brown. Additional terms of the deal were not disclosed. Weiss pitched the last two seasons in the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) and had a huge year […]

2025 Dodgers season review: Hyeseong Kim

What constitutes a signing working out or not is open to different interpretations depending on who you talk to and who you’re talking about. Amidst a very busy offseason last year, one of the moves made by the Dodgers front office was to sign Hyeseong Kim from the KBO, committing to a three-year deal worth […]

Royals Rolling the Dice in Rule 5 Draft, MLB Draft Lottery?

In this episode of Royals Rundown, hosts Jacob Milham and Jeremy “Hokius” Greco take a deep dive into a crucial stretch of the Kansas City Royals’ offseason. With the MLB Winter Meetings heating up, the pair explores what’s real and what’s just rumor, breaking down how previous winter meetings laid the groundwork for future blockbuster […]

Potential trade candidate: Lars Nootbaar

The Royals have spent the early offseason signaling an appetite for upgrades in the outfield, with Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reporting they prefer to add two outfielders – one via free agency and one via trade. The free agency market is thin, leaving the Royals to sort through potential platoon options. But the Royals […]

2025 MLB Winter Meetings: Jed Hoyer speaks

The Winter Meetings so far are notable for one thing: The lack of major signings. The “biggest” thing that’s happened so far is Steven Matz, formerly of the Cardinals, signing a two-year deal with the Rays. Meanwhile, Cubs President of Baseball Operations Jed Hoyer talked relief pitching: After signing veteran reliever Phil Maton, team president […]

Jordan Beck became the Rockies left fielder in 2025

Welcome to the 2025 edition of Ranking the Rockies, where we take a look back at every player to log playing time for the Rockies in 2025. The purpose of this list is to provide a snapshot of the player in context. The “Ranking” is an organizing principle that’s drawn from Baseball Reference’s WAR (rWAR). […]

Rule 5 Draft thoughts and names: 2025 Edition

In theory, I love the Rule 5 Draft. Or, more accurately, I love the idea of what the Rule 5 Draft was created for. Basically, back in the day, MLB had a problem with some teams signing and stashing guys that could probably be productive major leaguers in their farm system. This was all before […]
