This evening, Katie Woo of The Athletic published an article with the headline “Mariners, Giants emerge as front-runners for Brendan Donovan trade: Sources.” Woo was the site’s Cardinals beat writer until this offseason, when she left that beat to cover the Dodgers, but she obviously still has her sources in St. Louis.

After signing Josh Naylor to a five-year deal to open the off-season with a splash, the Mariners made it clear their next priority was bringing back Jorge Polanco. However, the New York Mets foiled those plans today, inking Polanco to a two-year deal worth $40M. It’s a big pay raise for Polanco, who made about […]

Now that the 2025 Major League Baseball season is well behind us, and the sting from the Detroit Tigers’ final-game marathon against the Seattle Mariners has begun to subside, I thought it would be a fine idea to look back at some Tigers statistics from, as the saying goes, a “thirty-thousand-feet-up view.” Stats are from […]

The New York Mets have responded to a relative exodus of name players by adding one of the better lesser-known players from the other coast.
Infielder Jorge Polanco is headed to New York:
