  1. Alex Wood @Awood45 Put some respect on this mans name! There are some people you play with in your career that are just genuinely amazing human beings. Gaus is one of those guys. The good guys do win and Toronto just got a baller.
  2. Andy Martino @martinonyc Sources: Mets have offered Scherzer more than $40 million per year. Length unknown. Doesn’t mean he’ll sign there; that’s still unclear.
  3. Jon Heyman @JonHeyman Mets full attention at moment is on Max Scherzer, who may make a decision tonight. While the incumbent Dodgers are perceived as the favorite, the Mets are determined and financially formidable. If Scherzer goes elsewhere, Mets are expected to pivot to Kevin Gausman.
  4. Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 Team involved expect Kevin Gausman to make his choice no later than Monday. The #Mets are among many teams in pursuit. Eno Sarris @enosarris Hearing from a couple places that Jon Gray will make his decision soon. Plus slider, the curveball is above-average outside of Coors, and the team that gets him will believe they can maybe make some changes on the fastball profile, which fit Coors. Either way, floor's super high.
  5. Jeff Passan @JeffPassan The madness is just beginning. This is gonna be a whale of a 24 hours.
  6. Bob Nightengale @BNightengale Marcus Semien’s 7-year, $175 million deal with #Rangers doesn’t include a no-trade or opt-out clause but no real need with that kind of guarantee at the age of 31.
  7. Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal Avisail Garcia with Marlins, per source: Four years, $53M
  8. Jeff Passan @JeffPassan The Rangers aren't done. Even though they got Marcus Semien, they're still in the Trevor Story sweepstakes. They went into this winter with money to spend, they got a whole lot better with Semien and now they're targeting more offense as well as starting pitching.
  9. Jon Heyman @JonHeyman Semien Rangers deal is believed to be for about $175M over the 7 years
  10. Jeff Passan @JeffPassan BREAKING: Center fielder Byron Buxton and the Minnesota Twins are in agreement on a long-term, nine-figure contract extension, sources familiar with the deal tell ESPN.
  11. Jim BowdenBaseball @JimBowdenGM Front office executives preparing for a flurry of free agent signings prior to the expiration of the CBA on December 1st. #MLB #$$$$
  12. Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Terms on Garcia deal, per source $1M signing bonus ‘22 $4M ‘23 $5M ‘24 vesting/club option. Vests at $6 million w/ 110 total IP or 110 total games from ‘22-‘23 or 60 innings or games in ‘23 Otherwise it’s a $5M club option, $1M buyout 250k bonuses for 50 innings, 55 IP, 60 IP Ben Nicholson-Smith @bnicholsonsmith Heard Garcia also had a multi-year offer that would have paid him more but he preferred #BlueJays, believing they can win
  13. Andy Martino @martinonyc Sources: The Mets have had conversations with Scott Boras and Max Scherzer, but not overly optimistic there. At moment they are in hard on Kevin Gausman, who might sign today or tomorrow.
  14. Héctor Gómez @hgomez27 Vlad Guerrero Jr .: “I'm working harder than I did last year in the offseason. My goal is to arrive in my best physical condition at spring training and have a better season than the one I had this year so I can help the Blue Jays win the World Series." @z101digital @BlueJays
  15. Mitch Bannon @MitchBannon The wait is over! The #BlueJays signed their first free agent of the offseason yesterday. Toronto inked 27 y/o OF Nathan Lukes to a minor league deal with an invite to Spring Training, per his agency. Lukes posted a .808 OPS in AAA last season for the Rays.
  16. Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 1/Just talked to Steve Cohen on the phone. He was angered that the Mets were pursued by Matz and his agent -- not vice versa -- and told the NYM were Matz's first choice, that there was unfinished business with the NYM and he wanted to return. Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 2/His quote: “Most relationships I have had with agents have been wonderful. The conversations have been good, they really have been. But here this was different. This was something so over the line. Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 3/I can’t imagine what the agent was thinking in the context of how they reached out to us and the reasons they wanted to come back. I have ever had an agent do that before with me.” Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 Steve Cohen also said: “Steve (Matz) was a good Met when he was here. I only wish him well. This was about the interaction with the agent.”
  17. Jon Heyman @JonHeyman Jays made Matz a 3-year offer. They are still hoping to bring back Ray and Semien. Would be very expensive obvs.
  18. Jon Heyman @JonHeyman Mets GM Billy Eppler told Matz’s agent Rob Martin he was upset. Mets thought they’d have a final chance and didn’t get it. Word from Matz camp is he had a late change of heart,
  19. Steven Cohen @StevenACohen2 I’m not happy this morning . I’ve never seen such unprofessional behavior exhibited by a player’s agent.I guess words and promises don’t matter.
  20. Blake Murphy @BlakeMurphyODC Jon tells us on @FAN590 the Jays' 3-year offer was in the AAV range of Cardinals, likely mid-30s total. 4th year was, of course, the difference. Jon Morosi @jonmorosi The #BlueJays offered Steven Matz a 3-year contract, source says. He is now in agreement with the #STLCards on a 4-year deal, as @JeffPassan has reported. @MLBNetwork @MLB
  21. Jon Heyman @JonHeyman White Sox said closing in on a deal for Kendall Graveman. $24M for 3 years range.
  22. Peter Gammons @pgammo I understand why the union has stringly advised B Bichette not to take a longterm extension, and see the Albies contract, which will ake him to free agency at 30, wth $45.1M in career earnings. Ronald Acuna reaches free agency at 30 w/ $125M,with power to get another huge 5 years
  23. Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal Sources: Dbacks among teams in mix for free-agent reliever Kirby Yates, who missed all of 2021 after undergoing his second Tommy John surgery on March 24. Yates, 34, likely will command a two-year deal, with teams banking on his full return to health in the second year.
