Were it not for an Achilles tear at the end of July, 32-year-old righty reliever Trent Thornton might not have been available in free agency at all, much less available on a minor league deal.

If given the option to choose any player to throw the final pitch of the season for the Seattle Mariners over the past few years, Andrés Muñoz is the savvy selection. For Muñoz to be pitching, Seattle’s final game must be both close and meaningful. The 2023 and 2024 seasons ended on close victories, but […]

We’re getting ever closer to spring training and you know what that means: time to build the pitching pile. The Mariners did that today, acquiring RHP Yosver Zulueta from Cincinnati. Obligatory Remember Some Guys tie-in: the Blue Jays originally signed Zulueta out of Cuba in 2019 using pool space they got from the Kendrys Morales […]
It’s time for Prospect Christmas, aka the official opening of MLB’s international signing period for the year. While most of the deals are worked out ahead of time and only made official on this day, there are occasionally surprises once the period actually opens, and players will continue to sign over the coming weeks and […]
I think that many would agree that St. Louis Cardinals President of Baseball Operations Chaim Bloom has already accomplished most of his goals for this offseason, but the question of what to do about Brendan Donovan remains.

We thought we knew Matt Brash—a slider-slinging, fastball-fueled thrill ride of dominance and destruction with the occasional meltdown thrown in to keep you on your toes. But after Tommy John surgery kept him out for the entire 2024 season, Brash flipped the script in 2025, using two new pitches to get steadier results. He’s no […]
