It’s a Tuesday and the GM Meetings have kicked off in Las Vegas, so hopefully we begin to see some real offseason traction this week.
Let’s get to all of the latest news as you get your day started.
In Mariners news…
- In a pre-GM Meetings interview, Jerry Dipoto says the Mariners are looking for some bullpen help and at least one bat this winter.
- On that note, Adam Jude at The Seattle times provided some insights into the Mariners’ thinking this winter, including payroll projections and more.
- Kate Preusser applauded the Mariners for trying a different approach with their new coaching staff.
- In some tragic news, former Mariner and Yakima mayor Dave Edler was critically injured in a car collision that also killed his wife.
Around the league…
- Kevin McGonigle of the Tigers was named the American League Rookie of the Year while Sal Stewart of the Reds took home the National League honors. Both players earned their organizations a PPI pick for 2027.
- Red Sox legend Pedro Martinez made his plea to the players and the owners to resolve their issues before we lose games in 2027 — remembering how the 1994 strike caused severe damage to the sport.
