• Should the Royals call Brandon Belt?Photo by Julian Avram/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images The veteran could boost the lineup. The Royals have gotten off to a good start, but the season is long, and there are cracks in the edifice. The Royals are scoring 4.60 runs-per-game, good for 14th-best in baseball, but the production has been inconsistent. In 16 of their 35 games, the Royals have scored three runs or less. The offensi...2024Read about Drew Waters breaking news today -
• Why has no MLB team signed Brandon Belt?Photo by Daniel Shirey/MLB Photos via Getty Images The two-time World Series champion was a dangerous hitter last year, but he is still unemployed over a month into the 2024 campaign. During the 2023 MLB season, 212 different position players came to the plate at least 400 times. From that group, 35 players became free agents at some point during the offseason. There were the big, splashy ...2024See more Daniel Shirey breaking news today -
• New York Notes: Belt, Martinez, Cole
Veteran slugger Brandon Belt’s free agency has surprisingly dragged into the regular season, with the soon to be 36-year-old reportedly “baffled” by the lack of offers he’s received to this point. The Athletic’s Andrew Baggarly provided additional details on Belt’s free agency recently, noting that the Mets were the only club to offer Belt a…...2024Read about Andrew Baggarly news today

In early November, we ran our annual free agent prediction contest here at MLBTR. We had 6,135 entrants, which I believe is an all-time record.

Two days into the regular season, only one position player from MLBTR’s Top 50 Free Agents list remains unsigned: designated hitter/first baseman Brandon Belt. On Friday, the veteran slugger discussed his enduring free agency in an appearance on The JD Bunkis Podcast. According to Belt, he had very few calls with teams this winter that…...2024

• 2024 AL East preview: High-flying young Orioles seek to repeatPhoto by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images The Baby Birds zoomed up to 101 wins and the division crown in 2023, and their nest of prospects only continues to grow. For almost a decade, the daunting AL East was dominated by the high-profile New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox, as well as the perennially savvy Tampa Bay Rays. In 2023, however, the division champion was none of those three teams; inst...2024See more AL East injuries -
• Here are all the remaining MLB free agentsPhoto by Elsa/Getty Images Could any of them interest the Cubs? Opening Day of the 2024 MLB season is two weeks from this Thursday. Most teams have the players they want on their Opening Day rosters already in camp. But injuries happen — as appears to be the case with Cubs righthander Jameson Taillon — and perhaps teams are still looking for backup plans. Also, there are still the Boras Th...2024Click for news about Jameson Taillon injury -
• 2024 Cubs: Know your enemy, AL EastPhoto by Adam Hunger/Getty Images This will again be a division filled with very good teams. Three teams from the AL East made the postseason last year, four finished over .500 and the fifth barely missed the latter mark. This shouldn’t be any different in 2024. It’s entirely possible that four teams in this division win 90 or more games. Could that mean four postseason teams from the AL E...2024See also AL East injury report -

David Lesky at Inside the Crown questions the Adam Frazier signing. For $2 million in 2024, it’s easy to see him as a backup. That’s what they gave Garrett Hampson at least, and he’s clearly seen as a depth piece and not someone to play every day. But the fit just doesn’t make sense to me.

"To hear him refer to the roster as having a “championship core” feels a tad hopeful, though to his credit, Buster Posey, Madison Bumgarner, Brandon Crawford and Brandon Belt, did quite literally form the core of two World Series winners — three for Posey, Bumgarner and Pablo Sandoval, who were all on the 2010 squad." - 2018

"Check this out: At 2-2 in the fourth, Sandoval moved from second to third on Brandon Belt’s fly ball to left field, which set him up to score what turned out to be the winning run on Michael Morse’s base knock to right."
