The Pirates acquired Ji-Man Choi from the Rays in exchange for a minor league pitcher

Oh and Choi is having elbow surgery (though he is expected to be ready for Spring Training)

Hard to do without a GM

Any insights as to what all the conflict was about with Click? How do you not bring back the GM of a championship team?

He’s not Luhnow enough, and there was a big blowup between the owner Jim Crane and Dusty with Click over a Jose Urquidy for Wilson Contreras deal that ultimately got vetoed by Crane.

Oh and he bet his career on Jake Meyers being the everyday centerfielder.

The long coming release of Jason Heyward has finally happened.

The Cubs will pay him $22 million to not play for them this season

7 seasons with Chicago and he reached 100 OPS+ once during a full season. And that was EXACTLY 100. What a flop.

Due to finishing runner-up in the AL Rookie of the Year voting, Adley Rutschman earned a full service year (Julio Rodriguez was the winner)

Rutschman is the first player to be rewarded under MLB's new "prospect promotion incentive" plan

He will now hit arbitration in 2024 and is scheduled for FA in 2027

The Mariners will get an extra draft pick due to Rodriguez's win since he had already qualified for a full season of service. (The Orioles don't - you don't get to double dip)

It is a 2 year, $34 million dollar deal with an option of a 3rd year at $17 million

Assuming it is evenly split over the two years (which seems likely) - it is slightly less than what he would have gotten if he accepted the QO (but he gets two guaranteed years instead)

There has to be a list out there of players who willingly went from 100+ win teams to 100+ loss teams.  Can't imagine it's too big. 

 

Also Tyler may be the first to do so between teams from the same "city".
