Alek Manoah at double-and-a-half league minimum is a bit more than a "show-me" deal, options give options but Angels seem to be taking a flier when looking for an answer

The Orioles targeted an impact outfield bat and they got one in Taylor Ward, who hit 36 home runs as a right-handed hitter in 2025.

Ward posted a .918 OPS last year vs. lefties. He could help lift a lineup that missed middle-of-the-order production

Wow. The Angels announced that they've acquired right-handed pitcher Grayson Rodriguez from the Orioles in exchange for Taylor Ward.

That's a pretty enormous trade for both clubs.

“I hope Trout gets the feeling of playing in the postseason again. . . .” Ripken said. “But I don’t think it would change the way people look at him. Ernie Banks never won a World Series, and it doesn’t change the player he was.”

How did Mike Trout, the best baseball player of his generation, fade away?
He was a baseball god before his body betrayed him. Did he harm his legacy by staying loyal to the Angels?

the last time a World Series game was played at SkyDome in Toronto, it was in 1993 against the Phillies and their catcher was Darren Daulton. Later, his Phillies teammate, Gary Varsho, named his son after Daulton, and Daulton Varsho just homered for the Blue Jays at SkyDome in the World Series

Thank god the Blue Jays don’t… so I don’t have to root for the Dodgers!
