You don't usually get leaks like this

They did for Soto But not for multiple other players together as a package [Scratches head]

I meant more that he got to play in 40 games and had a chance to hit and prove he can stay in the bigs,. Not so much that he could beat any regulars on The Dodgers for a job. From day 1 everyone knew he was just a fill in and they weren't going to keep him.

Biggio blew his best chance while he was in LA. Going to be hard to ever make it back.

Royals Sign Cavan Biggio To Minor League Contract January 5th, 2025 at 3:50pm CST • By Mark Polishuk The Royals announced that utilityman Cavan Biggio has been signed to a minor league contract. While no mention was made in the team’s official announcement, it can be assumed that Biggio received an invitation to Kansas City’s big league Spring Training camp. K.C. is Biggio’s fifth different organization within the last seven months. Biggio had spent his entire pro career with the Blue Jays until Toronto traded him to the Dodgers in June, and Los Angeles released him two months later. The Giants then picked Biggio up on another minors contract in August but he didn’t see any big league time with San Francisco before he was traded to the Braves in August. Biggio appeared in four games with Atlanta and was then outrighted off the 40-man roster at season’s end, with Biggio opting for free agency.

Hi again everybody

It has worked out pretty well for him

Dammit

Josh Bell signing with the Nats 1 year 6M He'll mostly DH I guess?

Cubs Astros Orioles

I think they already are

I was actually going to suggest $200. Lol

Oh that's great

People who might or might not know much saying the Jays offered the most money to Teoscar Hernandez and Corbin Burnes and still didn't get either of them.

What are their current odds?

Orioles, Blue Jays Discussed Franchise-Record Contracts With Corbin Burnes December 28th, 2024 at 6:20pm CST • By Nick Deeds Perhaps the most surprising deal of the offseason came together late last night when the Diamondbacks and right-hander Corbin Burnes reportedly reached an agreement on a six-year deal that guarantees Burnes $210MM. It’s a deal that Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports came together rapidly after Burnes’s camp expressed the right-hander’s desire to pitch in the desert. Prior to Burnes pivoting to Arizona, the three teams most frequently connected to the right-hander were the incumbent Orioles, their division rival Blue Jays, and the Diamondbacks’ own division rival Giants. The exact specifics of the club’s offer to Burnes aren’t entirely clear, but it’s worth noting that Nightengale later reported that the Orioles and Blue Jays both discussed franchise-record contracts with Burnes while adding that one AL East club offered Burnes a seven-year, $250MM contract that did not come with an opt-out opportunity. The New York Post’s Jon Heyman, meanwhile, described the Blue Jays, Orioles, and one other team from the East divisions as the three biggest bidders for Burnes.

Good for them

I strongly suspect that Teo just wanted to stay there as long as the deal was adequate. And I can't blame him. Sure sucks for us Jays fans though.

It sucks a little extra when your 0 WAR 38M player mostly sits on the bench

Pre arb eligible player vs pending free agent Is the difference in ability to demand certain $$ But the value difference is much more in favour of Whitt for sure
