Yes, we are only 19 days removed from the end of the 2025 season, but the first game is only 4 months away.

Free agent stories:

- Will Cody Bellinger come back to the Dodgers as a free agent? (My guess is no.)

- Who will high-ceiling, low-floor Japanese 3B Munetaka Murakami sign with? Phillies seem to be the leading candidate right now.

- Where will Edwin Diaz land?

- Where will Bo Bichette land?

- Are the Dodgers going to sign Pete Fairbanks and call it a day regarding big relief pitching moves?

- Where will Pete Alonso land?

- Would the Pirates trade away Paul Skenes for a megaprospect hall?



Taylor Ward has been shipped to the Orioles for a prospect. Ward had 36 HR in 2025, but only hit .228. He has 98 HR since 2022, over about 2300 plate appearances.
