My first article for @fantasysixpack I look forward to any feedback and also helping you with your dynasty drafts.

Opening Day is the best day. Because it means seven straight months of real, meaningful baseball. And that's something for everyone to celebrate.

BREAKING: Star left-hander Framber Valdez and the Detroit Tigers are in agreement on a three-year, $115 million contract, sources tell ESPN. Valdez, 32, gets the highest AAV ever for a left-handed pitcher as well as the highest for a Latin American pitcher. Huge move for Detroit.

BREAKING: The New York Mets in agreement on a trade to acquire center fielder Luis Robert Jr. from the Chicago White Sox, sources tell ESPN. White Sox will receive two young players from the Mets.

Center fielders Carlos Beltran and Andruw Jones were elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame today. Since 1981, only two other center fielders had been elected: Ken Griffey Jr. and Kirby Puckett. Rightful due for one of the most vital positions and two incredible players.

Throwback to when Manny Ramirez made a running catch, high-fived a fan, and still hosed the runner

Shohei Ohtani homered. Again. Dead center off Trevor Megill. He has three home runs tonight. He threw 6.1 shutout innings and struck out 10. This is one of the greatest individual performances in posteason history.

Update: It is the fourth inning. Shohei Ohtani has thrown four shutout innings, allowed one hit, struck out six and hit a pair of home runs. The first went 446 feet. The most recent, to give the Dodgers a 4-0 lead, went 469 feet and nearly left the stadium. The best. Period.

I feel attacked 😂 @SleeperMLB

“There’s no such thing as a perfect throw.” Cal Raleigh:

Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow on succeeding without Rafael Devers in 2025: “I do think there’s a real chance that at the end of the season, we’re looking back and we’ve won more games than we otherwise would’ve.”

I think the gist of the trade is that the Red Sox regretted signing Rafael Devers to a massive contract now that he's not able to play third base (and unwilling to play first base). This deal gives them a do-over -- and with a much better return than a compensation pick.

The San Francisco Giants are acquiring All-Star slugger Rafael Devers from the Boston Red Sox, sources confirm to ESPN. An out-of-nowhere blockbuster deal. Boston is getting RHP Jordan Hicks and more. First on the news was @ByRobertMurray.

The Kansas City Royals are calling up slugger Jac Caglianone, one of the top prospects in baseball, sources tell ESPN. Caglianone, 22, is hitting .322/.389/.593 with 15 home runs and 56 RBIs in 50 games between AA and AAA.

@tomgolda225 @enosarris @DerekVanRiper @deadpullhitter @bdentrek Chourio probably has higher upside but Langford also seems like a pretty safe bet to be really good.

@enosarris @DerekVanRiper @deadpullhitter @DrewSpurling1 @bdentrek same question

@MattWi77iams @EricCrossMLB @PitcherList @AlexFast8 who’s got the better outlook over the next 3 years, Chourio or Langford

When Tanner Scott’s deal is made official, the Dodgers’ luxury-tax payroll for 2025 will exceed $375 million. That is about $70 million more than the next-highest team, Philadelphia. The Yankees are the only other team with a CBT payroll projected to be over $300 million.
