With Kenley Jansen signing with the Atlanta Braves, Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts discussed who he plans to be the closer for the 2022 season. The Los Angeles Dodgers made the big splash move to sign former Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman to a six-year contract. However, the Braves did get a player
The Atlanta Braves believe they can replace Freddie Freeman’s leadership, though his on-field metrics may be a little bit tougher. There is something to be said for a reliable, veteran presence in the clubhouse. While Freeman was among the NL MVP favorites year in and year out, he was also a leader. Braves general manager Alex
The last prominent remaining player from the 2016 Chicago Cubs World Series team still with the organization could find himself elsewhere soon.

Atlanta Braves general manager Alex Anthopoulos said Freddie Freeman has completely changed since signing with the rival Los Angeles Dodgers in his free agency. Freddie Freeman’s divorce with the Atlanta Braves has been nothing short of ugly, as general manager Alex Anthopoulos questioned his former first baseman’s character after signing with the rival Los Angeles Dodgers. “That’s
Adding a player opt-out to a player like Carlos Correa’s contract may seem business savvy. The stipulation is more likely to lead to a mountain of aggravation. Earlier this month, this offseason’s top free-agent prize, Carlos Correa, signed a deal with the Minnesota Twins. The deal was for three years and $105 million. Correa, however,
The Detroit Tigers excitedly announce their MLB Opening Day 2022 starter on the mound, and it’s a top free agent acquisition from the offseason — Eduardo Rodriguez. The Detroit Tigers knew they needed to be proactive in free agency this offseason, and they proved they could be when they signed shortstop Javier Baez to a six-year,
The Los Angels Angels used Friday to make one of the more obvious calls a club could make. Like most clubs, the Los Angeles Angels are getting ready for Opening Day.

The Toronto Blue Jays traded Randal Grichuk to the Colorado Rockies, where he will proceed to hit 40 home runs at Coors Field. It’s just the way of the world. By getting rid of Grichuk’s contract, the Blue Jays could open the door to another free agent move, which might be the purpose of a
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts had a bold hot take ahead of the 2022 MLB season: the Dodgers will win the World Series this year. The Dodgers nearly ran it back in 2021, advancing all the way to the NL Championships only to lose to the eventual World Series winner, the Atlanta Braves. Now

The Minnesota Twins were looking for a big-name shortstop and landed on Carlos Correa, partly because a former Astros player advocated for the Twins. Five years ago, the Houston Astros had recently won the 2017 World Series, and Carlos Correa and Marwin Gonzalez were fellow teammates and close friends. Since then, a great deal has
The White Sox are willing to be petty with the ace of their pitching staff, Lucas Giolito, and it could backfire rather quickly. After an offseason filled with labor negotiations, the White Sox have the gall to go to arbitration with their best pitcher in Lucas Giolito over $50,000, which amounts to chump change in
