He missed 43 games this year and had 33 HRs and 96 RBI.Well, maybe not after last night, but Cory Seager may be the most under-appreciated superstar in MLB. Such a clutch player. Two-time WS MVP, NLCS MVP, ROY; such a dangerous hitter, and plays key defensive position at SS. Kudos to Charlotte native Cory Seager. BTW, many if not most long term high dollar baseball contracts turn out to be disasters, but the Rangers 2021 deal to sign Seager for 10 years at $325 million was the exception as Seager is only 29.
Is this going to be a situation where the A's play in some random city for four years, like the Expos did with San Juan? Monterrey, maybe? (Rangers and Astros probably would approve of the shorter travel).The Athletics' lease with the Oakland Coliseum expires after the 2024 season, and the team has yet to solidify plans for where it will play before the Las Vegas stadium is ready in 2028. Manfred said extending the lease in Oakland is an option, though the city -- which owns half the stadium, while the Athletics own the other half -- has said in order to do so that it would need to keep the A's name and move to the front of the line for a potential expansion franchise.
Yankees finalizing a deal to acquire Juan Soto from the Padres
Ohtani is expected to pick his destination by Sunday.
Curious as to where Ohtani lands....and if the fact that Dave Roberts even commented on having a meeting with him dooms the Dodgers. Still think he ends up in Chavez Ravine.
They can have him; as others have said, anyone who pays him $500M+ is nuts.Lots of buzz that Ohtani is headed to Toronto.
It certainly doesn't anger me, but I strongly disagree with this take.IDK if this has been posted, and hopefully this doesn't anger everyone on this thread like every other post I make these days.....but this article is pretty dead on...I don't follow MLB much beyond the Braves during the 2nd half of the season, but I was really looking forward to Ohtani's Free Agency:
Shohei Ohtani's secretive free agency is a missed opportunity for him and MLB
