The Los Angeles Dodgers and Tampa Bay Rays are in agreement on a trade to send frontline starter Tyler Glasnow to the Dodgers, sources familiar with the deal told ESPN on Thursday. The deal is contingent on Glasnow signing a contract extension with Los Angeles, which the parties are hopeful will happen by Friday, according to sources. The window for the extension opened Thursday morning, sources said, and if completed, the Dodgers will get Glasnow and outfielder Manuel Margot and send right-handed starter Ryan Pepiot and outfield prospect Jonny Deluca to the Rays. One of the prized starting pitchers on the trade market, Glasnow is among the game’s most dominant — and […]

Giants, OF Jung Hoo Lee agree on 6-year, $113M deal

Center fielder Jung Hoo Lee and the San Francisco Giants agreed Tuesday on a six-year, $113 million contract, sources told ESPN, the biggest outlay for an Asian-born hitter coming to Major League Baseball and a vital signing for a Giants team that had reeled in recent years from free agent travails. Lee is a longtime star in the Korean Baseball Organization (KBO), regarded as royalty with father, Jong Beom Lee, regarded as the best all-around player in the KBO in the 1990s.

Braves acquire Fletcher, Stassi from Angels in money-juggling move

The Atlanta Braves obtained infielder David Fletcher and catcher Max Stassi from the Los Angeles Angels for first baseman Evan White and left-handed reliever Tyler Thomas on Friday, the team revealed, continuing a money-juggling effort in the wake of a previous trade. At the starting of the winter meetings, Atlanta dealt for outfielder Jarred Kelenic and a pair of higher-paid players: White and pitcher Marco Gonzales. During the meetings, the Braves flipped Gonzales and his $12 million salary to Pittsburgh along with cash in exchange for a player to be named later. White, who is owed $17 million for the remaining two guaranteed seasons and the buyout on his contract, was the latest to move […]

Chourio, a Venezuela native who signed with the Brewers in 2021 as a 16-year-old, spent most of 2023 at the Double-A level, where he hit .280/.336/.467 with 22 home runs and climbed to the No. 3 prospect in baseball in ESPN’s rankings.

Luis Severino goes from Yankees to Mets with $13M deal

Right-hander Luis Severino and the New York Mets on Wednesday agreed to a one-year, $13 million contract, sources told ESPN, sending the longtime Yankee to a Mets team that plans to spend its winter upgrading a depleted rotation. Severino, 29, had spent all of his eight-year career with the Yankees, including a rough 2023 in which he posted a 6.65 ERA over 89⅓ innings. Still, the free agent market has set the price of veteran starting pitchers at $10 million-plus a year — and Severino’s past success bought him slightly more. Over his first seven seasons with the Yankees, Severino was highly effective when healthy. He […]
