2026 Winter Meetings Post

The Padre of Pickle secured their 2nd title over my Chicago Holy Cows in one of the tightest finales this league has seen. The difference was 2 strikeouts, 0.11 ERA, and 0.12 WHIP which amounts to one good relief appearance. The Padres first championship goes back to 2013 so it's been awhile since they've reached the summit. 

This is the last offseason before the MLB collective bargaining agreement ends again which could bring another work stoppage. This uncertainty is definitely impacting many organizations' moves. The financial rules of engagement will likely change with the new agreement, so teams want to be prepared. We can worry about all that next season. 

There's no foreign series to prematurely open the season, but it does start earlier with opening night on 3/25 with Yankees @ Giants and full opening day on 3/26.

2025 Winter Meetings Post

The Braves managed to stop the Dodgers' title run securing their second title. Their first win came in the shortened 2020 season, so this is their first full-season championship.

The New York Mets are spending like the Dodgers. Their Juan Soto signing could be the boost Mr. Smile needs to get another title. Roki Sasaki is still out there. He has a cheap price tag so any team would sign him, but the Dodgers, Padres, and Mets are the NL favorites to get him.

There's another Tokyo series the week before Opening Day, so I may submit the draft before that to avoid the confusion of submitting the draft during the first game week. The prospect list would lock at that time, but any prospects making the Opening Day roster can be swapped out.
