Nolan McLean Not Expected to be Offered in Trade

According to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic, the New York Mets appear to be the favorite to land Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta in a trade. However, Rosenthal and Sammon noted that they would be able to acquire him without moving top pitching prospect Nolan McLean. Instead, they could look to […]


Tyler Bremner Will Participate in Spring Training Following Elbow Injury

Los Angeles Angels top pitching prospect, Tyler Bremner (elbow), is cleared to participate in spring training. The Angels selected Bremner with the second overall pick of the 2025 MLB Draft out of UC Santa Barbara. Bremner was diagnosed with right elbow soreness and was eventually shut down late in the season. However, their budding ace […]


Charlie Condon Will Compete for First Base Job

According to Thomas Harding of MLB.com, Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Charlie Condon is expected to compete for the starting first base job during spring training. Condon was selected with the third overall pick by the Rockies in the 2024 MLB Draft. The former Georgia Bulldog came out of college as an outfielder but appears to […]


Trey Yesavage Won't Have Strict Innings Limit in 2026

Toronto Blue Jays right-handed pitching prospect Trey Yesavage is not expected to have a strict innings limit during the 2026 campaign. Ben Nicholson-Smith of SportsNet reported that their top right-hander will have no workload limits in his second MLB season and is expected to remain in the starting rotation. The 20th overall pick from the […]


Noah Schultz to be a "Full-Go" During Spring Training

According to Scott Merkin of MLB.com, Chicago White Sox left-handed pitching prospect Noah Schultz (knee) is expected to be a "full-go" for spring training. The team's No. 2 overall prospect, according to MLB.com, was dealing with right patellar tendinitis late in the season but appears not to be in line to miss much time. Schultz […]


Ricky Tiedemann Healthy Ahead of Spring Training

Toronto Blue Jays left-handed pitching prospect Ricky Tiedemann (elbow) is expected to be fully healthy ahead of spring training. Tiedemann has battled numerous injuries throughout his young career, which have prevented him from staying on the bump for consistent periods.

Brice Matthews to See Time in Outfield

According to MLB.com's Brian McTaggart, Houston Astros top infield prospect Brice Matthews is expected to see time in the outfield during the upcoming season.

Owen Caissie "Very Likely" to Crack Marlins Opening Day Roster

According to Kevin Barral of FishOnFirst.com, outfield prospect Owen Caissie will "very likely" crack the Opening Day roster and serve as a primary right fielder. The Marlins acquired Caissie from the Cubs as the top asset in the trade that shipped right-handed pitcher Edward Cabrera to Chicago. While Caissie was already expected to compete for […]


Matt Shaw In Danger of Losing Playing Time?

Chicago Cubs former top prospect Matt Shaw appears to be in serious danger of falling into a reserve role for the 2026 campaign. On Saturday night, the Cubs inked a massive five-year $175 million contract with third baseman free agent Alex Bregman. However, with Bregman now slated to cover the hot corner on the North […]


Ryan Waldschmidt Could Break Camp with Arizona

Arizona Diamondbacks top outfield prospect Ryan Waldschmidt could break camp with the MLB roster. According to Baseball America, the Kentucky product appears to be entering camp with a legitimate chance to make the Opening Day roster as outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (knee) is expected to miss at least the first half of the season, recovering […]


Jordan Lawlar Could See Center Field Opportunities in Spring Training

According to Steve Gilbert of MLB.com, Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Jordan Lawlar could see opportunities in center field during spring training. While the former top prospect has only seen opportunities at shortstop and third base during his first two stints in the big league, it appears the Diamondbacks are exploring an alternative way to get him […]

Mets in "Pole Position" to Acquire Freddy Peralta

According to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon, the New York Mets remain in "pole position" to acquire Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta. Rosenthal and Sammon reported that while many teams remain in the mix for Milwaukee's top pitcher, the Mets could complete the trade without moving their top young pitcher, Nolan McLean. Instead, they could look […]


Yankees Expressing Interest in Acquiring Nico Hoerner

Following the Cubs' signing of third baseman Alex Bregman, the New York Yankees have already expressed interest in trading for second baseman Nico Hoerner and have reached out to begin preliminary discussions. Bregman's signing with the Cubs does create a bit of a logjam in their infield, as top prospect Matt Shaw will likely revert […]


Red Sox Could Pursue Bo Bichette

According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the Boston Red Sox will now turn their attention to free-agent infielder Bo Bichette after missing out on third baseman Alex Bregman. Bregman inked a massive five-year $175 million contract with the Cubs, but the Red Sox were expressing significant interest in him and even offered him a […]


Max Kranick Set to Throw on Monday

Free agent right-handed pitcher Max Kranick (elbow) is set to be throwing on Monday, according to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic. Kranick has been on the shelf since undergoing flexor tendon surgery in July. He was eventually released by the Mets earlier in the offseason. However, it appears Kranick has progressed well […]


Red Sox Offered Alex Bregman $165 Million Contract

The Boston Red Sox offered third baseman Alex Bregman a five-year, $165 million contract before he opted to sign with the Cubs on Saturday evening. The Cubs were able to narrowly win the bidding war for the longtime Astro, inking him to a five-year $175 million contract. Bregman spent the 2025 campaign with the Red […]

While the winners of […]


Freddy Peralta Remains an Option for Yankees

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta remains a top option for the Yankees if they were looking to bolster their rotation.

Yankees Remain Engaged in Talks with Kyle Tucker

Yankees Pursuing Trade for MacKenzie Gore

The New York Yankees have begun to pursue a trade for Washington Nationals ace MacKenzie Gore.

According to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic, right-handed pitcher Chris Bassitt has been linked to the Tigers in free agency.

Michael Toglia Inks Minor-League Deal with Reds

The Cincinnati Reds have signed first baseman Michael Toglia to a minor league contract. The 27-year-old was designated for assignment by the Rockies earlier this offseason and finally found a suitor. The UCLA product enjoyed a breakout season for the Rockies in 2024 when he launched 25 home runs with a .218/.311/.456 line across 116 […]

According to Jeff Passan of ESPN, the Chicago Cubs have signed free agent third baseman Alex Bregman to a massive five-year contract worth $175 million.
