Welcome back to our Discussion series. Today’s soapbox question might be an uncomfortably familiar refrain uttered on the South Side: what weakness will ultimately sink the White Sox if left unresolved?

It’s become something of an annual tradition in Birdland: the hot stove season heats up, the rumor mill churns out names of frontline starters, and Orioles fans allow themselves to dream.

Good morning, LSB. The Rangers were dealt a fairly devastating blow Thursday as top prospect Sebastian Walcott will miss most or all of the 2026 season due to a UCL tear. Woof. Walcott will reportedly undergo surgery in the coming days, though there’s still some stuff to be discussed with ol’ Dr. Meister. There’s also […]

The Dodgers didn’t do much at all to add to their starting rotation this offseason, and they didn’t need to. Boasting one of the most dominant pitching staffs in not just their own division, but all of baseball, the Dodgers enter the 2026 season with a plethora of rotational options. The quartet of All-Stars is […]

When remembering the numerous pitchers throughout the history of the New York Yankees, it’s easy to recall plenty who spent only a couple of seasons with the club.

After a 2024 season where Gunnar Henderson was one of the best players in all of MLB, Orioles fans could be hopeful he’d be able to repeat at that elite level. It didn’t work out that way, with Henderson having a still pretty good but nowhere near MVP-level season. We know now, from Henderson’s own […]

The Brewers have become a franchise known for trading away players before their team-friendly contracts come to an end.
