He, Yelich and Rendon were all deserving. Hard to dispute any winner there.
Trout wins in the AL. Well deserved as well, and his third win. He's got 3 MVPs and he's only 28, and the craziest thing about it is that he should probably have at least 5.

I'm sure at least half the twitter comments are something about the Angels and playoffs. WE'RE CLEARLY WORKING ON IT, ok? Ok.
Will Smith was great last year, but in general, I'm always very iffy about giving big contracts to relievers.
Too much money for a high probability of volatility

I totally forgot we was still on their roster lol. Man what shitty signing that was.
the whitesox have set a franchise record with their newest signing
edit: note: white sox still have like 40-60 million a year left to spend so don't expect this to be their only notable signing. Their payroll going into this off season was super tiny lol.

The heel turn by the houston astros and their fan base is a fantastic close out to the decade. Get A.J. Hinch and a couple of houston players on wwe raw.
Grandal is really good even though at his age you run the risk of a fall off for a catcher. His offense is good enough though that he can probably DH some if that will help preserve him. That seems like a good signing for Chicago.
I have no issues with the signing though I couldn't help but laugh reading https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/11/mlbtr-poll-grading-the-grandal-deal.html
I wouldn't call a player who is worth over 1 WAR less a clear upgrade :P. I know they were talking about long term success instead of one season, but that one season to me definitely removes the "clear" part of the upgrade :P
Quite possibly. I figure they still have 2 more major signings to do and at least one trade.
wouldn't be surprised if they tried getting something in return for Zack Collins

bball ref does a poor job of capturing pitch framing into their WAR value computations, whhich is something Grandal excels at. Per Fangraphs WAR (which is known to take framing better into account) Grandal was like 5 WAR last year while McCann was like a 1 win player. The effect this has on a pitching staff plus the significant offensive upgrade from McCann (who is well below average in terms of OBP) is a clear upgrade to me, age aside.
Braves sign Cole Hamels for one year.

I'm quite surprised it ended up only being a 1 year. I had expected him to get a 2-3 year contract to end his career.
" White Sox' bid on Wheeler was actually higher than that of the Phillies "
I wonder if this is a straight up higher, or like it was higher for machado but when you looked at it it was clear it was actually 20 mil lower.
Not sure about this move but hopefully it will work out. Sucks Cole signed with the Braves.
As a Mets fan, I'm furious.
Great deal for the Barves... Only 1 year? Wish the Mets played baseball in a big market or something.
I would give every Yankee title for the end of Dolan's Knicks ownership.
They deserve to be great. The fans deserve to actually enjoy the team.
I'm happy for the Mets; they will be free of bullshit ownership!

Due to a clerical error, the rightful owner is...Bobby Bonilla?!
so what are we expecting like 7 years 225 mil?
I'm alright with the white sox not going after him if that's the case.
