After agreeing to deals with the San Francisco Giants and the New York Mets this offseason, Carlos Correa will officially head back to Minnesota on a six-year deal with the Twins. His name dominated the hot stove this winter and the impact of this signing will have a ripple effect on the Twins and Mets. Which players on these two rosters stand to…

First shortstop Carlos Correa was going to leave the Minnesota Twins to sign a 13-year, $350 million contract with the San Francisco Giants. But concerns over Correa's earlier ankle injury prompted the Giants to back out of the deal after setting up the news conference to announce it. Awkward! That prompted billionaire fanboy Steve Cohen to swoop…

The New York Mets may have lost out on free agent superstar Carlos Correa, but they remain legitimate World Series contenders in 2023. However, the Mets no longer can be considered favorites to win a championship next season. Just three weeks ago, Mets owner Steve Cohen said as much. Breaking the news that New York had reached a 12-year, $315…

Now that the 2022 season is over for the New York Mets, we have been looking back at the year that was. After taking a more general view of the offense, pitching, and coaching staff, it's time to take a deeper dive into the Mets' players. This series will take a look at every player on the roster for the Mets at the end of the season from A (Pete…

Shayne Trail breaks down his favorite NRFI/YRFI bet of the day below, but you can follow all of his bets in the Action Network app. On Friday, we head to Miami to take a NRFI between two National League East rivals, the Miami Marlins and the New York Mets. The Marlins will send out their ace, Sandy Alcantara. Coming into today he holds a strong…

The 2022 MLB season marks the sixth consecutive season where manager Craig Counsell and the Milwaukee Brewers are looking to finally break through in the National League. At face value, they have a deep and talented team across the board. The key to success is their offense making substantial leaps. Such offensive production is going to have to…

New York and Atlanta look set to scrap to the finish line for the divisional crown, so the Mets can't afford any slips before then. Today's meeting with the Marlins and Jesus Luzardo is a good matchup and one our picks expect NYM to exploit. The New York Mets will try to prevent falling out of first place in the NL East on Wednesday night as they…

Do the New York Mets have the best starting lineup in baseball? According to MLB Network's Anthony Castrovince, yes! So far the Mets have gone from Eduardo Escobar to Carlos Correa at third base and brought in Omar Narvaez to become the new catcher. They have better DH options when Daniel Vogelbach doesn't start. But is this lineup now the best in…

What was the Evil Empire before Darth Vader? Sure, they were lurking in the shadows with Senator Palpatine pulling all of the strings. But it was not until he turned Anakin Skywalker to the Dark Side that Palpatine was able to show his true nature to take over the galaxy and rule it with an iron fist. This is exactly what we just saw play out in…

Wait, Mets? What happened to the Giants? That deal fell through because of something that turned up in Correa's physical, and the Mets stepped up with an offer one year and $35 million shy of the original (final terms: 12 years, $315 million). It was an unlikely fit given that the Mets already have a franchise shortstop in Francisco Lindor, but now…

In one of the most stunning turn of events in the history of MLB free agency, All-Star shortstop Carlos Correa has walked away from a 13-year, $350 million deal with the San Francisco Giants - the contract was never signed because of a concern during Correa's physical - and has signed with the New York Mets for 12 years and $315 million. New York…

Carlos Correa was a San Francisco Giant in the same manner that Alex Rodriguez once was a Boston Red Sox, in handshake form only, one industry-rattling deal collapsing only to give way to another, and a superteam resulting because of it. Two decades after the game's preeminent superstar shortstop saw his transfer to Boston nixed, it happened again,…

In the AL East, four teams have a decent shot of winning the division, and all of them are good. In the NL East, four teams have a decent shot of winning the division, and maybe one of them is good. The Mets look good on paper, but they're, you know, the Mets (more on that later). If the AL East is a battle royale against the titans of the league,…

Though we're still waiting on the biggest, Aaron Judge-sized domino to fall, there have already been quite a few lucrative deals handed out in this year's MLB free-agency cycle. Eleven players have agreed to contracts worth at least $10 million per year, and there could be as many as 40 more at that price point when all is said and done. Not all of…

With the Super Bowl now in the rearview mirror and March Madness still weeks away, this would normally be the time of year when talk of the upcoming MLB season starts to heat up.

Diamondbacks general manager Mike Hazen and manager Torey Lovullo have worked together since 2017. Theirs is one of the longest current partnerships in baseball for a head of baseball operations and manager. Only the Dodgers (Andrew Friedman and Dave Roberts), Guardians (Chris Antonelli and Terry Francona), and Mariners (Jerry Dipoto and Scott…

The Diamondbacks made a late run at a Wild Card spot last season and could do it again in 2020. Switch-hitters Ketel Marte and Eduardo Escobar enjoyed career years, and even a slight regression would still make them two of the most productive players in the league. The D-backs added Madison Bumgarner to lead the rotation after trading Zack Greinke…

Let's get right to it: Not much is expected from the Arizona Diamondbacks this season. After a late-season collapse that cost them a playoff spot last year, the D-backs lost several of their top players to free agency (A.J. Pollock, Patrick Corbin) or via trade (Paul Goldschmidt) in the offseason. Most experts believe this year's squad will finish…

Sure, most of the predictions end up being completely wrong, but it's a fun exercise nonetheless. Batting first, second baseman Trea Turner Starting off hot, I know, but…

The New York Mets were an embarrassment last year. Billionaire hedge fund manager Steven Cohen spent almost $200 million in payroll to finish 77-85, players fought with fans on social media -- and through the actual media -- and Cohen had his say publicly as well. GM Jared Porter was hired and then fired about a month later for inappropriate…

But if you're looking for one area where St. Louis can impose its will, it's in this pitching matchup. St. Louis' starter Miles Mokalis has looked like an All-Star this year, and he enters the game after six straight stellar…

Liam Hendriks and Ryan Pressly spent one season pitching together on the Twins staff. It was 2013, when Pressly had just joined the club as a Rule 5 pick, and Hendriks was playing out the string with the organization that first signed him. At the time there was no indication we were looking at two of the future biggest relief stars in baseball.…

A miserable start in the miserable year of 2020 led to another trade deadline selloff, and the moves committed the D-backs to a retooling around core building blocks Ketel Marte, Zac Gallen and Madison Bumgarner. If the starting pitching stays healthy and the young arms take another step forward, the Diamondbacks could compete for a playoff spot,…

At every turn, the Billy Eppler Mets have prioritized a long-term vision over the immediate future. They have wanted their title window cracked open for a sustained, long period, which led to Eppler refusing to jeopardize that goal by trying to pry this season's window wide open. So none of the Mets' top 19 prospects, Eppler said, were traded at…

The new, expanded playoffs start, now with even more teams! It definitely lowers the bar for entry. Under the pre-2012 system, the solitary wild-card teams in each league would have been the Blue Jays (92 wins) and the Mets (101).
