Winter Meetings 2025/2026

1 hour 7 minutes

Grey and B_Don run through a packed offseason update starting with the Orioles who continue to load up. The big move is Pete Alonso signing for five years and 155 million dollars after a 2025 season with 38 home runs and career best quality of contact numbers. The concern is the park shift going from a top right handed power park to Camden. Baltimore also names Ryan Helsley closer on a two year deal despite a rough 2025. The O’s bolstered the offense with a trade that acquired Taylor Ward, but they trade away a young arm in Grayson Rodriguez to the Angels.

The Mets shake things up by sending Brandon Nimmo to Texas and bringing in Marcus Semien. Devin Williams stays in New York on a three year deal switching leagues. In Toronto, the Blue Jays commit long term to Dylan Cease with a seven year deal buying into the strikeouts and hoping the ratios rebound while Cody Ponce returns from overseas on a three year contract. The Rays add Cedric Mullins on a one year deal hoping for a power speed bounce back sign Steven Matz after strong ratios in limited innings and claim Jake Fraley off waivers.

The Dodgers make a massive bullpen splash by signing Edwin Diaz for three years immediately cementing one of the most dominant closer situations in baseball. The Red Sox overhaul their pitching acquiring Sonny Gray from the Cardinals adding Johan Oviedo from the Pirates trading Vaughn Grissom to the Angels and reshuffling depth in multiple deals.

Elsewhere the Braves strengthen the bullpen with Robert Suarez and add Mike Yastrzemski Seattle and Washington swap prospects in a deal involving Harry Ford the Diamondbacks take a one year flier on Mike Soroka the Angels add Alek Manoah and the White Sox bring Anthony Kay back from Japan. Plenty of fantasy ripple effects as Grey and B_Don break down where the value may or may not be heading into draft season.
