Sounds like he's close to a deal with an NL team. Wouldn't be the worst DH tonhave.

There's an article in here on how a few guys spent their off season. Love to see hiura working on his leg kick. I was a bit disappointed to see yelich say he simply had a normal off season. Please tell me you tried to do something different after being very mediocre last year. At the very least tell us you're in the best shape of your life. I'm starting to get the vibe that work ethic might be a problem.

I’ve searched & looked for clarity, but I do not see an answer to this question anywhere … so, help! Does the new CBA ban the shift this year or next year?

a $50mm bonus pool has been created to reward the top 100 pre-arbitration players. it will be based on baseball writers' association of america award voting results, and on a wins-above-replacement formula to be determined by july.
estimated annual cost for the brewers? $1.67mm.
the article linked above breaks down the bbwaa-determined bonus pool.
had this rule been in place last year, corbin burnes would've received a $2.5mm bonus for his cy young award.

Due to the surprising events of the day, I'm pushing up the migration to new software by a couple of weeks and we'll do it Sunday morning. The site will be down for all of the morning and possibly early into the afternoon but then will be back up for good afterward.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

this thread will be devoted to rules changes for roster management in 2022.
--no surprise here, but universal designated hitter.
--players can no longer be sent on optional assignment unlimited times in a given season. a player can be sent to the minor leagues on optional assignment a maximum of five times. if the club wishes to send him to the minor leagues after being optioned five times, he must be placed on outright waivers. any team claiming him would be forced to place him on their 26-man roster, because he's already hit that limit of five optional assignments in the season.
