Expectations are not high for the Pittsburgh Pirates entering the 2022 campaign.
To the surprise of very few, the Pirates were not a good baseball team in 2021. General Manager Ben Cherington will continue his rebuild of the team this offseason. Just how deep into the blow-up is Cherington willing to go? All the way? Or does he see his core starting to form? These are the big questions surrounding the team as another offseason filled with departures seems to be on its way.
How much patience is too much? For category leagues in particular, having pitchers from the list below can crush your fantasy team’s chances. We all know, however, that many players are slow starters or battling a minor injury and will eventually turn their season around.
Last September, Arte Moreno’s Los Angeles Angels finished their sixth straight year without making the postseason. The first order of business this offseason was the firing of general manager Billy Eppler and the hiring of his replacement.
After a tumultuous 2020, the Los Angeles Angels pitchers and catchers report to Tempe Diablo Stadium, their Spring Training home for the past three decades. Here are five key components that will factor into the 2021 Angels pitching, catching, and management.
The Angels struck a deal with free agent starter José Quintana on Tuesday. B.J. Martin evaluates the move and what’s next for Los Angeles.
The upstart Chicago White Sox made the playoffs for the first time since 2008. Unfortunately for the young squad, they lost in the best-of-three opening series to the Oakland Athletics. However, they did show baseball what they are capable of and put the league on notice that they aren’t going away any time soon.
Only four seasons removed from their historic 2016 World Series championship, Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer find themselves at a crossroads as the core of their title team heads into their free agency walk seasons. Led by Kris Bryant, Javier Baez, and Anthony Rizzo, the key offensive components of the Cubs roster that ended the franchise’s 108-year championship drought are looking at big contracts at the conclusion of next season.
The Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers are both 95-67. Today at 1PM ET they will square off in Wrigley field. The winner will be the #1 seed in the NL and the loser will host the Wild Card game tomorrow night. Pride, home field in the playoffs, and two days off are riding on today’s game 163.
