Free Agency Thread

Very curious if the Tigers spend any money.

The kids (Illitch children) are not exactly their father.

The fans got a taste, we need to make that next step
 
Crochet deal very interesting. I get the Sox get 2 value years but anyone feel like they gave up too much after losing out on some top targets?

Left-hander is a need for Boston.

ChiSox have to start grabbing pieces for the rebuild.

Without fully knowing the prospects, seems like each team attained their goal.

You could be right though -- Boston didn't want to strikeout.
 
The Brewers dumped choke artist Devin Williams to the Yankees for scrub starter Nestor Cortes who only has one year of control and a mediocre middle infield prospect. Not much of a return and I would hope they flip Cortes to a team in need of a starter but getting anything for Devin is a win.
 
Houston is an ideal fit for Paredes. He needs that short porch. Didn't hit a lick at wrigley after the Cubs got him. Hurts to lose Cam Smith, our first round pick fromm last year who absolutely destroyed A Ball, but you gotta give up something to get a guy like Tucker. Hopefully, Matt Shaw can handle 3B and then you have yourself a pretty good lineup.

Not a fan of this deal for either team. Houston has gone from one of the best teams in baseball to a fringe playoff contender over the last few years and Tucker is just a rental for Chicago though they didn't give up much to get him. Unless they are giving him 400 million plus Tucker will go to the Yankees or Dodgers next offseason.
 
It's win now time for the Cubs. They haven't won a playoff game since 2017, I think. The fans are getting restless. They have one of the top minor league systems in baseball with the most top 100 guys of any team, so I think it's worth a crack to trade one and make a go of it. Wesneski is just a guy, though I bet he'll be decent for Houston and Paredes isn't a must keep either. It's really a top 50 prospect in Smith for a year of Tucker.
