He could be the leader of the most expensive collection of talent in baseball history. He could be the two-time World Series champion manager. He could be part of a dynasty. Don Mattingly said he never viewed his departure from the Dodgers in that context, however. And when he returns to Dodger Stadium this week as the bench coach of the Toronto Blue Jays, he doesn't expect to feel anything he wouldn't feel in a World Series game played at any other stadium.

Ha-seong Kim has a player-only option at 16 million dollars for 2026. Everything right now suggests that he will opt out and search for a new contract. In 2025, Kim picked up 0.3 WAR through 191 PAs. He had a .234/.304/.345 line with a 82 wRC+ overall. However, most of that was injury-riddled. In 98 post-IL-stint Braves PAs, he picked up 73 more points of OPS versus before. Still, he was 26th of 30 in shortstop WAR post-injury aka September.

It was a good season for the Reds in 2025, on balance. Hunter Greene replicated his excellent 2024 andcemented himself one of the game's top young starters, Andrew Abbott enjoyed a career-year that saw him make his first trip to the All-Star game, and despite winning just 83 games the club managed to squeak into the postseason for the first time in a full season since 2013.

New York can't be Europe, folks. I don't know what is wrong with people. You see what's playing out in other countries because countries because of Islamic extremism. Not Muslims let's not mix this up but those Islamic extremisms that are burning churches in Nigeria, that are destroying communities in Germany, that have taken over the logical thinkings and that is what I am fighting for. I am fighting for the family of New York.

The days of George Steinbrenner seem like a distant memory in the Bronx. The New York Yankees last won the World Series in 2009, while he still stood at the helm. But most, if not, all Yankee fans still openly echo his philosophy, believing there is no such thing as a good season; you either win or you lose. If you did not win, then you lost. And if you lost, how can it be a good season?

Elly De La Cruz has led the league in errors the past two seasons, but the Reds intend to keep him at shortstop, at least for the time being. President of baseball operations Nick Krall spoke to Mark Sheldon of MLB.com for a piece about Cincinnati's top prospects.

What an incredible first two weeks of the 2025 MLB playoffs we've had. There was the instant classic 15-inning Game 5 of the American League Division Series between the Detroit Tigers and Seattle Mariners, sending Seattle to its first American League Championship Series since 2001. We saw the Philadelphia Phillies be eliminated by the Los Angeles Dodgers on a bases-loaded error in the 11th inning. We watched the Toronto Blue Jays stomp past the New York Yankees with a barrage of scoring.

Trey Yesavage set the baseball world on fire after he managed to keep the Yankees extremely quiet during his Postseason debut.

The Yomiuri Giants of Nippon Professional Baseball have interest in acquiring veteran right-hander Kenta Maeda, according to a report from Yahoo Sports Japan. Maeda, 37, indicated back in August that he plans to leave MLB and return to Japan for the 2026 season, where he hopes to find a role in NPB. The veteran's decision to leave MLB behind isn't exactly a surprise given how difficult the past two seasons have been for him.

The game sets several records, including the longest postseason game ever at 18 innings, longest postseason game by time (5 hours, 50 minutes), and first postseason game with two grand slams.

The Los Angeles Dodgers lost Game 3 of the National League Division Series to the Philadelphia Phillies, 8-2, on Wednesday night. The Dodgers will get another chance to punch their tickets to the NL Championship Series on Thursday with Tyler Glasnow set to take to take the hill. In other news, manager Dave Roberts revealed postgame that reliever Tanner Scott was away from the team due to personal reasons. In a game that got away from the Dodgers in the eighth inning, having another southpaw reliever certainly would have been helpful, especially after Clayton Kershaw's apparent struggles.
