Yep. Padres and Sox in the WS.

Auburn Terry's target signs with the White Sox. Massive deal for a RP. Happy JD didn't go there. Hopefully this is a sign of the stove heating up.

I think perhaps now you’ll start to see other reliever targets start to get signed in a slow race for what’s left. Hand, Bradley, etc. will see suitors and contracts.

In past years I often enjoyed the cheesy Mariner Caravan stop in Longview but this January the caravan is going virtual:

God it's so fun to be the 2014 Astros.

Lets hope another year of sucking ass means we win the WS in 2024.

Let's hope they realize sucking ass is for losers/liberals and they actually try to win since they have a chance to.

It's about progress, not about 0 to World Series in one offseason.

On the bright side, Iwakuma now seems to be our biggest acquisition of the offseason.

Not sure what to make of Taijuan Walker's mention of Portland in a tweet on Wednesday:

The Beavers have not been in Portland since the San Diego Padres moved the Triple A club following the 2010 season.

Nick Madrigal, the super infield prospect with the White Sox, wore No. 3 for the orange-and-black of the Oregon State Beavers in 2016-18.

Archie signs for 1 year $6M. My response included here.

I have never been so down on our two Seattle teams simultaneously in my life.

Likely overpay for a reliever who was non-tendered with a projected 2021 arbitration salary between $4.3 million and $5.7 million.

The Phillies may be more desperate than the Mariners.

Or not.
