2025-2026 offseason thread

[Enscheff]

After failing to extend Kim I think the prospect of another 500 PAs of Allen at SS is more likely than we want to admit. I’m expecting lots of “why does the offense suck?” discussions while running a .500 OPS black hole in the 9 hole in front of Acuna.

When is the draft lottery?

As I mentioned in another post, I think it’s a super quiet offseason until I see otherwise. Can’t wait for AA to hold a news conference at spring training and talk about how getting healthy is like making a ton of additions.

It’s not. There’s no guarantee Schwelly, Lopez, Jimenez, etc all come back healthy

December during the winter meetings. 6th best odds.

And Holmes and to an extent Strider.

Who does everybody think the first big FA to sign will be?

Feels like Tucker is the big fish this winter, so i'll go him.

I heard a lot today about the Dodgers being full in on Tucker. They had over 70 million come off the books and need another OF.

December 9th. Says AI.

Looks like the offseason just got a bit tougher.

They posted a job opening for the Freeze

Seems like the perfect role for Guillermo Heredia.

How do they have anything coming off the books? 95% of their salary is deferred lol.

They have 87M freed up with Kershaw, Conforto, Taylor and Yates off the books. It's insane

Yep. And with that they can add Tucker and put Bichette at 2b.

Let Acuna do it

 

[CyYoung31]

They have 87 million freed up from players who weren’t even on the playoff roster (except Kershaw, but he only pitched like two innings).

MLB could fix it in 3 steps...
1. Install a cap
2. Install a floor
3. All tv money goes to mlb to be distributed equally.

 

[Hudson2]

Yeah the playing field is so far out of balance in MLB it'll never be fixed bc half the league won't vote for it.

 

[Hulavol]

He's a beast for sure but like you said he gives those Tommy Pham vibes. They'd probably want Albies back along with Richie, Waldrep, and Nacho. We don't match up well bc it's both really a need

They’d want Drake too.

 

[Hudson2]

They’d want Drake too.

Probably so
