Seranthony Dominguez Linked as Potential Option for Diamondbacks

Free agent relief pitcher Seranthony Dominguez is viewed as a top option for the Diamondbacks' bullpen, according to Jack Sommers of Sports Illustrated. The Diamondbacks are in the market to add to their bullpen as both of their top options, A.J. Puk (elbow) and Justin Martinez (elbow), are expected to miss the first half as […]


Blaze Alexander Could Shift to the Outfield

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Blaze Alexander could see extended time in the outfield during the upcoming season. On Tuesday, the Diamondbacks acquired third baseman Nolan Arenado from the St. Louis Cardinals. Following the trade, GM Mike Hazen noted that he envisions Arenado playing on a daily basis at third base, which will limit Alexander's opportunities […]

The Arizona Diamondbacks are expected to rely on a "bridge "closer in the first half of the season while top relievers A.J. Puk (elbow) and Justin Martinez (elbow) recover from their respective injuries.

Alec Bohm Linked to Pirates as Possible Trade Target

According to Colin Beazley of The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Pittsburgh Pirates could look to pursue Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm in a trade. With the Phillies in serious pursuit of Bo Bichette, they could look to move Bohm in a trade, as Bichette would likely become their everyday third baseman. The Pirates have had […]


Dodgers Designate Ryan Fitzgerald for Assignment

The Los Angeles Dodgers have designated infielder Ryan Fitzgerald for assignment. This transaction opened a spot on the roster for Andy Ibanez. The Dodgers claimed Fitzgerald off waivers from the Minnesota Twins earlier this week. If Fitzgerald were to clear waivers, he would report to Triple-A Oklahoma City. Last season, Fitzgerald made his MLB debut […]


Joe Musgrove Won't Have Innings Limit in 2026

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Joe Musgrove (elbow) will not have an innings limit placed on him during the 2026 season.

Cardinals Trade Nolan Arenado to Diamondbacks

The St. Louis Cardinals have traded third baseman Nolan Arenado to the Arizona Diamondbacks. In exchange, the Cardinals received right-handed pitcher Jack Martinez.

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.

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.

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.

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. Last season, Tiedemann missed the entire campaign recovering from Tommy John surgery. However, the team's […]


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. Matthews made his MLB debut last season but was deployed in the infield, spending most of his time at the keystone. The former first-round pick came up in the minor leagues […]


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.

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 […]

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.
