Trade news, per ESPN sources:

Arizona Diamondbacks acquire third baseman Eugenio Suarez.

Seattle Mariners acquire reliever Carlos Vargas and catcher Seby Zavala.

Diamondbacks get their third baseman. Mariners move money off the books and get a live arm and backup catcher.


Hmmm one backup catcher off the market. Lol

So it should be easy to find a guy who can be a better backup catcher than Hedges then, since we already have a good teacher in place.

And you should give the teachers a chance to work with the subject, a couple weeks or months isn’t enough…

Not sure there is a teacher alive who can boost Hedges BA by 30 to 40 points at this stage of his career, after 2300 plate appearances in the big leagues.

From YardBarker:

Bleacher Report has ranked all 30 clubs as free-agent destinations for the 2023-24 offseason. The criteria used included Payroll Situation, Contention Timeline and Quality of Life.

The Rangers, once just another MLB outpost, are higher on the list that the Yankees, Giants, Red Sox, New York Mets, Chicago Cubs and Houston Astros. Actually, the champs trail only the Dodgers.

The Rangers apparently have a significant free-agent advantage compared to the rest of the American League West. Bleacher Reports rankings for the division: Los Angeles Angels (14), Seattle Mariners (15), Astros (16) and Oakland Athletics (30).
