There was no better way for Freddie Freeman to depart the Atlanta Braves in 2021 than by bringing the franchise’s first World Series since 1995.

The last team in the MLB that needs someone else other than the usual suspects to step up is the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Every season there are people who believe there were some obvious snubs for the MLB All-Star Game. This year, it’s hard to argue against.
