• NL Week 7 Strategy-May 3, 2026
In The Field C Sean Murphy (hip) is expected to be activated next week for the series against the Mariners. He is likely to get most of his at-bats initially at DH while he is slowly worked in at catcher. This means that C Jonah Heim's time with the club is likely going to come to an end soon. 2B Jorge Polanco (wrist/Achilles) has started baseball activities, but is still weeks away from returni...2026

• Preseason Prep - March 15, 2026
Salvador Perez (C-KC) hit just .236 with 30 HR, 100 RBI, and 54 R across 641 PA in 2025, but his wRC+ came in at a subpar 96. Surprisingly, that was somehow just the second time the vet hit 30 or more HR in a season as he regularly sits in the 20s. Although Father Time will eventually come for Perez, his low average in 2025 seems to be more a product of poor luck than anything else as his BABIP wa...2026
