Anthony Rizzo is considered a solid backup plan for teams that miss out on Freddie Freeman. With Freeman’s free agency in flux, what does that mean for Rizzo? For one, it means Rizzo is waiting to react. For teams like the Braves, Yankees, Dodgers and Blue Jays — all of whom need a first baseman
MLB Free Agency
The latest on Carlos Correa has two big players — the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers — going in opposite directions in their pursuit. The Correa chase appears to be down to four teams — the Yankees, Dodgers, Cubs and Astros. Once the lockout ends, the real games begin, as official offers can
The Atlanta Braves may have had interest in Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa back in December, but that interest should only reinforce the notion that Freddie Freeman is coming back. If the Atlanta Braves were to let Freddie Freeman walk, Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa could be a potential high-profile replacement, albeit an extremely unlikely one. Atlanta reportedly showed
HOUSTON, TEXAS – NOVEMBER 02: Freddie Freeman #5 of the Atlanta Braves (Photo by Carmen Mandato/Getty Images) Freddie Freeman and Carlos Correa have been the free agents getting most of the attention this offseason. But there are other names teams should covet. With a winning history on offense and defense, Freddie Freeman and Carlos Correa
A surprise team has entered the Freddie Freeman chase — or at least been named as a potential suitor: The Detroit Tigers. Does the fit make sense? The Tigers already made one free agent splash this offseason by signing Javier Baez before the lockout. They also added a shutdown pitcher in former Red Sox hurler
MLB super-agent Scott Boras could actually help the Houston Astros keep Carlos Correa, despite the lack of negotiations thus far in free agency. Correa got tired of waiting, despite the fact we’re in the middle of an MLB lockout, and therefore hired Boras. Thankfully for Correa, Boras has a history of landing his clients lucrative
The Chicago Cubs could be out of the running if Carlos Correa isn’t willing to adjust his salary expectations. With Scott Boras as agent, that feels unlikely. Boras was hired on Tuesday, and since he’s already publicly flirted with Correa’s former team, the Houston Astros. The Dodgers remain the Dodgers, so they have money to
The Boston Red Sox have maintained interest in Japanese outfielder Seiya Suzuki all offseason. What would it take to get a deal done? Suzuki is a bit of an unknown at this point, as his only real professional baseball experience is in NPB, rather than MLB. Any team that takes on Suzuki — and the
Former Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa pulled the trigger on Tuesday night, hiring super-agent Scott Boras to get a deal done after the lockout. Correa’s camp was failing at getting such a contract done before the lockout, and rumors of those demands falling during the work stoppage didn’t do him many favors. With Corey Seager
Carlos Correa hired Scott Boras as an agent, perhaps resetting the market as a whole. What does this mean for Freddie Freeman? Correa’s decision impacts the entire free agent landscape, at least when such a landscape can be explored. Boras is the most well-known agent in all of baseball for a reason, and his clients
The Atlanta Braves have plenty to be worried about in the Freddie Freeman chase, especially because there’s nothing they can do at the moment. Freeman remains a free agent thanks to the lockout, which prevents teams like the Braves from consulting with players. The top first baseman on the open market — and one of

Adding Scott Boras to the mix makes a major difference right away. Correa’s contract expectations skyrocketed immediately after adding Scott Boras to the mix. Boras clients rarely take less than what they deserve, MLB lockout
Astros fans are more worried than ever about losing star shortstop Carlos Correa, but a recent rumor doesn’t mean they’re out of the running just yet. Correa was reportedly shopping some game-used Astros gear of late, making it seem like he’s on his way out of Houston. At the very least, his timing was curious.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are among the Atlanta Braves’ biggest threats in their pursuit of free agent first baseman Freddie Freeman. Freeman is a California kid, so if he fails to re-sign with the Braves for whatever reason, the Dodgers could be a solid backup plan. The 32-year-old wants a six-year deal worth about $30
While buzz connecting free agent shortstop Carlos Correa to the Chicago Cubs has increased during the MLB lockout, Ken Rosenthal believes it’s just noise. Correa still needs a home, in part due to the work stoppage initiated by MLB team owners. The top free agent shortstop on the market wants a contract within the range

The Atlanta Braves must act swiftly and carefully with top free agent Freddie Freeman once the MLB lockout comes to and end. Freeman will decide between the Braves, Dodgers, Blue Jays and Yankees (among any other mystery teams) once the lockout finally comes to an end. Until then, the speculation only grows as to what

The St. Louis Cardinals struggled to keep a full rotation in 2021 but, after signing Steven Matz, they could shore up everything with one move. While the St. Louis Cardinals obviously played well enough to make it to the postseason last year — even if they were bounced immediately — there were some clear problems
If the Braves decide to go cheap with a Freddie Freeman replacement, rather than simply paying him what he’s worth, fans in the ATL won’t be happy. Freeman is still favored to return to the Braves, so we should start there. Very little suggests that the 32-year-old would rather end his career elsewhere, despite growing
Free agent shortstop Carlos Correa cannot sign during the MLB lockout, but that hasn’t stopped the rumor mill. Correa, once linked to the Astros, Tigers, Yankees and even Dodgers, has more recently received interest from the Chicago Cubs.
