I think what will bother me for this entire offseason is that the Phillies had the Shohei Ohtani locked up. He was doing absolutely nothing at the plate. On the mound, different story, but when he put
a bat in his hands, the Phillies were ready. It was quite impressive to watch them completely bottle him up….and now they have to watch other teams be unable to do the same.
They were so close.
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- We all know the prospects that are most impactful coming up in 2026. Here’s a closer look at those three names ($).
- What was maybe a tiny secret is no longer: the team is going to move on from Nick Castellanos ($).
MLB news:
- The Dodgers are going back to the World Series after beating the Brewers in a rout. Hip hip hooray, folks.
- Tarik Skubal and the Tigers are far, far, far apart in talks for a contract extension. I’ll be this is more about the years than anything.
- Elly de la Cruz isn’t coming off of the shortstop position anytime soon in Cincinnati. Nor should he (and they shouldn’t trade him either).
