Tigers

If Gleyber decides to opt in does that take the tigers out on Bregman and Bichette?

It shouldn't, since the Tigers have so little money on the books

Why Yankees are going  after a SP? They have greater needs

Altogether now.....

You can never have too much pitching!

Jorge Soler to NYM for Jeff McNeil, do you make that trade
Mark P
11:22
Not if I'm the Mets. I don't think Soler has much value, or brings much help to NY's lineup.

E Quero for J Crawford, is this a good framework for a trade?
Mark P
11:24
Phillies Crawford?  The Phils will be in a tough spot at catcher if Realmuto signs elsewhere, but I don't think a trade like this would be on their radar.  Crawford is being lined up for regular OF duty as early as 2026, and the Phillies have a big need in the outfield as well.

Do the Mariners try to lock up Gilbert to a deal now or just let it ride?

Gilbert is a FA after 2027, Kirby after 2028, and Woo/Miller after 2029.  Castillo's contract is also up after 2027 unless he triggers a vesting option for 2028.

With Naylor now representing another pricey deal on the books, it will be fascinating to see which pitchers (if any??) the M's also choose to lock up.  They'll have to make some tough choices since not everyone can be retained, and I'm not sure Gilbert would necessarily be their first choice for an extension.

We've gone an hour now, so time to wrap things up.  Thanks to everyone who submitted a question, and stuck around after the delay.  Anything can happen in the wild frontier than is the Weekend Chat!
