gregorybrown+FollowHow the Mets’ Black Friday spree really turned outSteve Cohen’s 2021 Black Friday shopping spree for the Mets felt like a game-changer, but looking back, the results are a mixed bag. Max Scherzer brought excitement but fizzled out when it mattered most, and watching him win a ring elsewhere stings. Starling Marte and Eduardo Escobar never quite lived up to their contracts, though Mark Canha quietly delivered solid value. It’s wild how a single day of signings can shape a team’s future for years. Which of these moves do you think helped or hurt the Mets the most? #News #Mets #MLB30Share

Kimberly Hall+FollowIs Bregman’s Instagram Hinting at a Red Sox Deal?Alex Bregman just updated his Instagram profile with a Boston jersey, and Red Sox fans are buzzing.

terrysharon+FollowJapanese Ace Imai: Dodgers Are My TargetLooks like the Dodgers won’t be adding Tatsuya Imai to their star-studded rotation anytime soon! The Sawamura Award winner just told Daisuke Matsuzaka he’d rather take down LA than join Shohei Ohtani and Yamamoto in Hollywood. Imai’s all about the challenge—he wants to face Ohtani and prove his fastball can hang. Love the confidence! Do you think Imai has what it takes to topple the Dodgers’ superteam? #Sports #Baseball #MLB10Share

Marvin Arnold+FollowThe Mariners are the most paradoxical franchise in sports historyWe held TWO completely opposite records at the same time and somehow that perfectly captures what it means to be a Mariners fan. 21-year playoff drought - longest in ALL of professional sports. Not just baseball. ALL sports. The suffering was legendary, generational, almost mythical at that point. But ALSO: Ken Griffey Jr. getting 99.32% of HOF votes in 2016 - the highest percentage in baseball history at the time. The Kid was so undeniably perfect that even voters who usually withhold first-ballot votes couldn’t help themselves. That’s peak Mariners right there. We can’t make the playoffs for over two decades, but we’ll casually produce one of the most beloved players in baseball history who gets the most unanimous HOF vote ever recorded. We’re simultaneously the most tortured fanbase and the home of absolute baseball royalty. We’ve seen the worst baseball has to offer AND some of the greatest individual brilliance the sport has ever produced. Only in Seattle could heartbreak and perfection coexist for that long. #SeaUsRise #MLB 15819Share
Renee Ramirez+FollowDodgers Outfox Reds in Lux Trade FiascoWow, talk about a front office blunder! The Reds took a big swing last winter, sending top prospect Mike Sirota and a valuable draft pick to the Dodgers for Gavin Lux, hoping his playoff experience would pay off. Instead, Lux struggled and is already gone, while Sirota’s showing why he was so highly rated. Now the Dodgers are stacked, and Cincy’s left wondering what could’ve been. Anyone else think Nick Krall wants a mulligan? #Sports #Baseball #MLB00Share
Catherine Reeves+FollowYankees Snag Siani After Dodgers' Tucker SplashDodgers fans, what a whirlwind! LA made Kyle Tucker the highest-paid player in the game, and in the process, let defensive whiz Michael Siani go. Now, Siani’s landed with the Yankees, who just inked Cody Bellinger. With the Bronx Bombers’ outfield looking stacked, will Siani finally get a shot, or is he just passing through? This move adds another layer to the Yankees-Dodgers rivalry—who got the better end? #Sports #Baseball #MLB00Share
