There was a time when Red Sox fans argued about lineups. About rotations. About whether the bullpen was one arm short or three. Somewhere along the way, the argument shifted. Now it’s not who’s batting cleanup—it’s who’s leaving next, and who’s coming in to explain it. For years, the Red Sox were defined by stars who felt permanent. You watched them grow up. You bought the jersey assuming you’d get more than a couple good summers out of it. You believed—maybe a little stubbor

The Reds have done it! A power bat is making its way to a ballpark that is one of the best places to hit in Major League Baseball. On February 1st, Cincinnati and homerun specialist Eugenio Suarez agreed to a one-year, $15 million deal. With this addition, an already deep Reds lineup is suddenly rather scary, and the NL Central is shaping up to be quite a fun race between everyone other than the rebuilding St. Louis Cardinals.

The Dodgers' greed has grown to levels that sicken both fans and owners across the entirety of Major League Baseball. After the acquisition of perennial All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker, LA’s payroll is starting to look like Mark Cuban’s checking account. However, the concurrent additions of big-name free agents come with their disadvantages. What’s to come for young talent on the LA roster? Specifically, I’m referring to young starting pitcher Emmet Sheehan.
