Reflection is a great way for anyone to get a look at what they have done in the past and see how they have changed going forward into the future. Whether for good or for bad, MLB teams have had one full regular season (plus the playoffs for some) to reflect on the moves that […]

The class of free agents that were free to choose their next teams in the offseason between the 2018 and 2019 MLB seasons was far and away one of the best crops of players that we had seen in a very long time. Heavy at the top with a large grouping of superstars looking to […]

Heralded as one of the most top-heavy free agent classes in recent memory, both Bryce Harper and Manny Machado found new homes during the 2018 MLB offseason.

This was not supposed to happen for the Washington Nationals. On May 23, the Nats fell to 19-31 on the season and were 10 games back of the Atlanta Braves in the National League East division.

The 2018-19 MLB offseason was primarily about one man: Bryce Harper. The former Washington Nationals phenom was about to embark on what was supposed to be one of the wildest bidding wars in league history, and almost certainly was bound for record-breaking dollars in terms of guaranteed money. Harper was all but out of Washington […]

Having to deal with the loss of production from a certain superstar that will not be named, the Washington Nationals came into the 2019 MLB season with hopes of competing in a National League East division race that kept growing more competitive by the day.

With the constant stream of money being funneled to players recently in the MLB, big-time contracts are being handed out to any players who have been on the level of what a superstar is.

So much for a quiet MLB offseason.

After winning two straight NL East division titles in 2016 and 2017, the Washington Nationals bottomed out in 2018. A combination of injuries and a weak pitching staff saw the Nats finish with an 82-80 record, a 15-win decrease from the year before. By season’s end, Daniel Murphy and franchise mainstay Gio Gonzalez were both […]

For months on end, the main questions of this MLB offseason pertained to two 26-year-old stars: Manny Machado and Bryce Harper. Where would they sign? How much would they sign for?

The Bryce Harper sweepstakes came to a close when he signed with the Philadelphia Phillies late last week.

Coming off a season that resulted in yet another World Series championship earned, the Boston Red Sox do not have that many areas that need to be improved.
