New York Mets second baseman Robinson Cano has tested positive for PED’s for the second time in his career, and it changes the Mets whole offseason plans.
The San Diego Padres will undergo a slight ownership change, as executive chairman Ron Fowler has sold the majority of the team’s stake to Peter Seidler.
After taking a hard line drive to the head off the bat of Giancarlo Stanton during “Spring Training 2.0”, Masahiro Tanaka came back to have a respectable 2020 season. He made 10 starts during the regular season and two in the postseason. The Japanese-born right-hander has had an up-and-down seven big league seasons with the New York Yankees. He now looks to earn a new contract in an uncertain offseason. Let’s take a look at what his market may look like.
After having one of his best seasons in 2019, Michael Brantley put up another solid performance in 2020. Though he missed 14 games due to a quad injury, he remained one of the key bats in the Houston Astros’ lineup during the abbreviated season.
The Atlanta Braves signed left-handed pitcher Drew Smyly to a one-year deal worth $11 million on Monday.
One of the holes that the Mets are looking to fill in free agency is their rotation. Charlie Morton is a great candidate to fill one of the last spots and would bring a playoff resume and well as a whole lot of experience.
While fixing the pitching staff should still be Boston’s top priority this offseason, outfielder and designated hitter Marcell Ozuna makes too much sense to let him sign elsewhere.
After the New York Yankees let him walk, Sir Didi Gregorius signed a one-year, $14 million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies last offseason. The shortstop will turn 31 prior to the 2021 season. He could be putting on the fifth new threads of his career.
The New York Yankees could have a new catcher in 2021, as the team considers trading catcher Gary Sanchez. They will at least listen to offers for the backstop, according to the New York Post.
In 1969, Major League Baseball went through another expansion. Four teams were added to MLB, with two being added to the National League and two to the American League. The expansion teams were awarded to Montreal (NL), San Diego (NL), Kansas City (AL), and Seattle (AL). All four of these cities still have MLB teams today, but the Seattle expansion team of 1969 (Seattle Pilots) only lasted one season. The Pilots were relocated to Milwaukee in 1970, and they became the Milwaukee Brewers.
The Los Angeles Angels concluded their six-week search for a new general manager Wednesday with the hiring of Atlanta Braves assistant general manager Perry Minasian. He’ll assume the role last held by Billy Eppler prior to his departure at the conclusion of the 2020 regular season.
Steve Cohen is officially the owner of the New York Mets, and has been very expressive in his love and fandom for the storied franchise. Despite a few hiccups with the bidding, legal, and owner’s approval, the Point 72 CEO is now the majority owner of a large-market MLB team.
