Really digging the M’s new hires in the dugout. Makes me excited to see what kind of hires will follow the new POBO once KSE can proceed.

Arjun plates a pair for Mesa! The 2026 Fall Star is now batting .316 this Fall with a 1.003 OPS. With his two-run double, Arjun now has seven this Fall; one-shy of the lead

The cameo in Godzilla Minus Zero simply cannot be a cameo for the sake of a cameo. (Given some of the rumors JPN tabloids have dropped recently.) In other news, does anyone know what Shinji Higuchi is directing at the moment?

FWIW, the Padres reached their agreement in May and was approved by the owners in August, so a December approval would be in line with their sale.
OC Register: “There is no MLB rule that would prevent the Angels from hiring a new GM before the sale is complete, an MLB spokesman said.”

Gimme three months and his golf buddies in Florida wouldn’t even vote for him. I’ll smoke him by 7. Bet on it.

I got two words for you Talarico and El sayed. Must see tv!

deGrom must've seen the midterm results already:
The Rangers are going to search for trade partners for Corey Seager, Jacob deGrom, and Nathan Eovaldi this offseason, per @Evan_P_Grant (dallasnews.com/sports/ranger…)

Seager and Eovaldi definitely seem likelier to go, given their ages and contractual situations. Thankfully Seager's contract will prevent Neto's market from being clogged too much.

He will be Stan Kroenke’s white whale.
MLB fans, prepare yourselves for the Shōta Morishita experience in 2 offseasons. He’ll be one of the most complete Japanese players of all time to get posted. He basically never swings and misses on fastballs and hits for a ton of pop. Dude is gonna go nuts in MLB

Guess we know why Mo said they’ll take their time hiring (potentially into next year) a new head of baseball ops - the sale has to be approved by MLB for them to make that hire.

Mo and KSE will have a field day taking offers for Zach Neto this winter. (Likewise, Randy Flores will have a big chance to retool the Astros with Jeremy Peña.)
The top MLB free agent shortstops, according to Eli Ben-Porat: 1) J.P. Crawford (Age: 32, Qualifying Offer Eligible) 2) Mauricio Dubón (32, UFA) 3) Ha-Seong Kim (31, UFA) 4) Edmundo Sosa (31, UFA) 5) Isiah Kiner-Falefa (32, UFA) More MLB free agency coverage: buff.ly/GZrafsl

Hopefully KSE lets Mo be active here while they conduct FO interviews. The Angels could offer Kaima plenty of leeway to start as they rebuild.
The following four players will be  made available via the posting process as of Sunday, with negotiations permitted to begin Monday: * RHP Kaima Taira (Saitama Seibu Lions, NPB) * RHP Hiromi Itoh (Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters, NPB) * INF Teruaki Sato (Hanshin Tigers, NPB) * INF Si-Hwan Roh (Hanwha Eagles, KBO)

Roh could also be a good candidate to replace Grissom at 1B too. (And Schanuel if he's traded.)

Good framework. Just swap Stone for another position player and tweak Bachman’s deal to include more position players (like Jackson Lovich) and the Angels are definitely considering it.
Some trades I cooked up:
