Andrew McCutchen back to the Bucs

That should sell some more tickets and jerseys. And I will be expecting a bobblehead too. I know he's not MVP Cutch anymore but still glad to see him back in Pittsburgh for whatever he can contribute.

The Padres and OF Juan Soto avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $23 million contract. Soto has one more year of arbitration eligibility before he hits free agency in 2025.

The Padres also avoided arbitration with RP Josh Hader by agreeing to a one-year, $14.1 million contract. Hader hits free agency in 2024.

And the Padres sign 42 year-old DH Nelson Cruz for 1 year/$1 million.

Aroldis Chapman to the Royals. Scott Barlow people everywhere just barfed a tad.

Gonna rant a second for the Barlow family. The Royals have a great, blossoming relief pitcher who posted back-to-back stellar seasons and was following a progression that was likely going to culminate as a top 10 closer as a 30-year-old in 2023. So sure, they go sign a has-been POS who walked 17++% of every batter he faced last year to stunt that progression. What an amazing organization. Barlow family, signing off.
