• The Matthew Boyd signing by the numbersDavid Dermer-Imagn Images If you liked Drew Smyly have I got a pitcher for you Yesterday the Cubs signed an interesting but oft-injured pitcher in Matthew Boyd. With the deal coming in at two years and $30 million it’s pretty clear they see him as a starter. The more research and time I spent processing this free agent signing the more I convinced myself that I’ve seen this movie before, b...2024Click for news about Matthew Boyd injury report -
• Should the Colorado Rockies sign Kirby Yates?Photo by Richard Rodriguez/Getty Images Colorado Rockies news and links for Tuesday, December 3, 2024 Because it’s that very slow time in the offseason — unless you happen to be Juan Soto or a team hoping to sign Juan Soto — between the end of awards season and the start of the Winter Meetings next week, there’s little baseball news to discuss. (Seriously: Just rebrand the MLB Network the ...2024See also Colorado Rockies injuries -
• Tuesday Rockpile: Should the Colorado Rockies sign Joc Pederson?Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images Colorado Rockies news and links for Tuesday, November 19, 2024 Clearly, we’re at a slow time in the MLB offseason, a fact true for most teams, but especially the Colorado Rockies, who have done very little, save sign a couple of MiLB contracts and make a low-profile trade. Indeed, Kris Bryant’s Lamborghini has gotten more attention than the offseason C...2024Click for news about Colorado Rockies injuries -
• Outside The Confines: Waiting for a milestonePhoto by Matt Dirksen/Getty Images Aaron Judge is on the cusp of a major career moment. As of Wednesday morning, Aaron Judge is currently sitting at 299 career home runs. The major 300 home run milestone is just around the corner, and Judge will join a special club, and doesn’t seem poised to slow down any time soon. Judge’s quest (and how he adjusted his swing) is a big story of the week...2024See more Matt Dirksen injury report -
• Mike Trout’s latest lost season is yet another gut punch to his storied careerPhoto by Brandon Sloter/Getty Images A once-promising season goes by the wayside. Again. It all started so swimmingly. This statement could apply to both Mike Trout’s career and his 2024 campaign. It feels like an eon ago now, but the Angels icon went deep in his first at-bat of the season. He then outpaced all younger mashers in their prime, like Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani, to become t...2024Visit the page Mike Trout injuries -
• Outside The Confines: A Trout setbackPhoto by Brandon Sloter/Getty Images Bad news for Mike Trout and the Angels Happy Wednesday, friends! It sounds like bad news for a rehabbing Mike Trout who was hoping to be back with the Angels later this week. Trout was pulled from a recent rehab start after only two innings, feeling soreness in his post-op knee. This obviously isn’t ideal news for Trout, who wants to get back into the ...2024Click for news about Mike Trout injury status -

So far, so good for the Royals.

• A few thoughts about the Shohei Ohtani contractGetty Images In the end, this is likely not good for baseball. By now, you have likely heard about the remarkable way in which Shohei Ohtani and the Dodgers have split up his record 10-year, $700 million contract so that it won’t cost the Dodgers anywhere near the $70 million AAV toward luxury tax that you might think it would at first glance. Fabian Ardaya has the details in The Athletic:...2023See more Shohei Ohtani -
