Another evening a World Champion. What a life, what a team.

The comparisons to the 2019 tigers in terms of destiny and playing the best of anybody that took a field in that year are so accurate. I was hesitant at first, but now the comparisons are clear.

The Mets are in agreement with free agent reliever Jorge López on a one-year contract, reports Carlos Rosa (X link). It’s a $2MM guarantee, per Jeff Passan of ESPN (on X).

It’s another low-cost bullpen flier for a New York team that has also brought in Austin Adams and Michael Tonkin this offseason. López had a rough 2023 campaign, allowing a 5.95 ERA in 59 innings.

Ohtani to Toronto IMO.

I thought the Dodgers was too obvious but then I've been reading about how private he likes to keep his life up to and including withholding the name of his dog (which caused the media to seethe).

The handwringing from the Buster Olney’s of the world about how quiet he’s kept his free agent process has been a joy to observe. Makes me really like Ohtani

Olney's article whining about Ohtani was pathetic. Wtf does he owe the baseball media?

Going from the Angles to the BlueJays, the guy loves the underdog. He did play in a dome in Japan so maybe he just loves familiar settings.

All sogns point to Toronto

Possibly the first major free agent in the NBA or baseball to ever choose Toronto

I think the shoe fits. Don’t take this the wrong way, but literally any team except the Dodgers would be great. I want to see Dave Roberts get BBQ’d.

Baseball media are the most non-athletic sissies of them all

If you're a Dodgers fan you have to be crushed that your hometown media basically bullied Ohtani out of LA and your manager blabbed about the Ohtani FA meeting to voracious media dogs.
