    James Paxton traded to the Yankees

    Sheffield is not ready for "prime time" and the Yankees don't have time to wait for him to develop.  Paxton is a finished product and will help in the Bronx immediately. Sheffield is going to be really good and the Mariners have time to wait for him to grow.

    All-Time Records

    Personally, I think Pujols has a chance to break the RBI mark.  He has less than 310 to go to break the record. Also, Johnny VanderMeer's no-hitter record is pretty safe.  To break it, one has to throw 3 in a row.

    MVPs

    I met Trout when he played in Cedar Rapids.  He is a true class guy.  He will get other opportunities to get this award again.

    2018-19 Offseason Thread

    Also, Rob Manfred had his contact extended another 5 years.  The game is in pretty good shape right now and h has done a good job, IMO.

    2018-19 Offseason Thread

    Yep.  The guys on MLB Tonight just said that Mookie is the league MVP, but JD is the Red Sox MVP.  If you think about it, it makes sense.  Mookie doesn't have the year he had without JD being in the lineup with him and the Sox don't get through the playoffs without both.  Mookie had the better...

    Cy Youngs

    The NL race is going to be close.  Nola, Scherzer and deGrom are all excellent choices.

    Yes.  My bad.  I guess I'm still under anaesthesia.

    Blake Snell wins in the AL over Verlander and Kluber.  I just hope that Kate Hudson doesn't go off again.

    Bob Melvin and Brian Snitker picked up the hardware.  Any of the finalists would have been very deserving.

    Seattle mortgaged their future to try to win last season.  They are trying to rebuild now with trades for major leaguers -- Zunnino is the first out the door.

    Joe Mauer Retires

    The announcement was made yesterday.  He concludes a long career, 15 years, with his hometown team.  A  great story. Mauer had a very good career derailed by concussions.  Had he continued his path before the concussions that forced him to move to 1B, we might be talking about a trip to...

    Free Agents -- Who Signs Where and for How Much?

    With Kershaw off the board, a lot of the focus will be on Machado and Harper, not that it wasn't already.  Corbin, Keuchel and Eovaldi should do very well. https://www.mlb.com/news/2018-2019-mlb-free-agents-and-trade-rumors/c-297641124?tid=282421090
