2025 Around The League Thread

That sold me on Lombard.

Still seeing some weird wants in the comment section of that thread like Eddie Perez, Tyler Flowers, and Travis d'Arnaud for manager. No thanks.
 
It sounds as though Alex Bregman is going to opt out of his deal with the Red Sox after a year. Has 2 years left at $41 MM per year (a lot of it deferred. Is anyone paying Bregman more than that on an annual basis. I suppose the argument can be made that with a considerable portion of his contract with the Red Sox is in the form of deferred money that he would rather have the cash upfront, but he'll be 32 right before the 2026 begins. I'm really curious about what his market will look like if he does opt out.

I bet he gets 5/150 pretty easy, and that point it's probably worth it given that money now is better than money later. I would say there is a non-zero chance he gets close to 200 million. It's not a particularly strong offensive market in general and the Yankees, Red Sox, Mets, Phillies, Jays, Reds, Cubs, Tigers, Mariners, and a few other teams with playoff hopes need an upgrade at 3b. So he should have no shortage of suitors.
