In my first piece for @BtBScore, I breakdown Freddie Freeman's free agency. A look at why the MVP and World Series champion is likely to stay put, as well as some potential landing spots should he choose to leave. #ForTheA
MVP and World Series Champion Freddie Freeman will be one of the most sought after free agents this winter. While staying in Atlanta remains the most likely case, a departure could certainly be on the horizon as well. beyondtheboxscore.com/2021/1…

Retrosheet is in need of volunteer help with its Negro Leagues project. For games for which Retrosheet has found some newspaper accounts, Retrosheet needs help capturing whatever game information is available in a usable format. (1/3)

Tom Verducci's new interview with Clayton Kershaw is a must-read. Really breaks down 2017 World Series Game 5, and it's just heartbreaking to think what might have been. si.com/mlb/2020/02/20/astros…

Rough estimate: At the top four levels, this will cost around $13.5 million (if applied to all players), about the amount it takes to fund the short-season teams MLB wants to eliminate. Certainly makes it seem like contraction is a cost-cutting measure. nitter.cf/Jake_Seiner/status/122…
Players at rookie and short-season levels will see their minimum weekly pay raised from $290 to $400, and players at Class A will go from $290 to $500. Double-A will jump from $350 to $600, and Triple-A from $502 to $700.

ICYMI: Yesterday for @BtBScore I wrote about the Cubs foolishness in giving up on Vimael Machín and why the Oakland A's got a complete steal via a Rule 5 draft trade,
