The Phillies have checked the biggest item off of their offseason to-do list, as they have ensured that Kyle Schwarber will be back in Philadelphia for 2026 and beyond.

Something feels different this offseason. How to put it? The Baltimore Orioles are … relevant? They’re a player in the AL East, a spending threat, a real free agent destination, for perhaps the first time in our lifetime. The organization was already making waves at the Winter Meetings when reports emerged this week that the […]

Liverpool’s rivalry with Manchester City is less historic than either clubs’ unfriendly relationship with Manchester United. However, it was often the Premier League title decider during the years Jurgen Klopp spent as the Reds’ manager at Anfield. […] The post Pep Guardiola makes admission about Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool team appeared first on Paisley Gates .

Meet the Mets After seven years and a franchise home run record, Pete Alonso is a Met no more. Whether or not Alonso’s departure is a good thing for the team, the slugger was a good Met during his time here. Alonso is just the latest casualty in David Stearns’s tear-down, and right now the […]

Morning, all! Given the Rangers’ many needs and limited budget it’s a foregone conclusion that they will be digging through the factory seconds in the Rule 5 Draft. One of the shirts with the wrong number of buttons the Rangers snatched up is Carter Baumler, who has managed to wrack up all of 88.2 innings […]

Despite a quiet Winter Meetings, the Royals remain on the hunt for outfield help: “So much of it comes down to, whoever you’re trying to acquire: What’s the competition for it [and] are you willing to beat the competition?

Once a potentially impactful draft that nobody paid attention to, the Rule 5 draft is now an inconsequential draft that most diehard baseball fans pay too much attention to. Present company included. I kid, sort of. But it was once a draft that gave the Pittsburgh Pirates Roberto Clemente, the Chicago Cubs Hack Wilson, and […]

So the vaunted Winter Meetings turned out to have been a massive time-suck, completely useless from my point of view. It wouldn’t be a surprise for me at this point if the Cubs signed nobody at all. It’s going to take a hell of a lot to mollify me or even to start to allay […]

Hello, friends. There are now 105 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2026. Today will probably not be as exciting as yesterday was, unless Mike Elias is really, truly determined to knock off another major piece of business before this week comes to a close. As I’m writing this, it’s been several hours now since […]

It’s been nice to have a flurry of activity across baseball the last few days. The offseason is more fun when there are actual moves to be discussed, not just arguing over various rumors that may or may not be completely irrelevant.

There weren’t many fireworks at this year’s winter meetings, but the last day in Orlando did deliver a pretty surprising move, the Orioles lavishing Pete Alonso with a five-year, $155-million contract.
