Has the Japan league’s season not ended yet?

(and yeah I know we lost Pirela to Japan and Straily to Korea. I just meant signings with other MLB teams)

Heading into a free agent season, Bruce switched from Sosnick Cobbe Sports to Excel Sports Management, who also represents Dickerson

Hasn't been that much movement outside of "big names" or teams retaining their own to me, especially position players. Of position players switching teams (outisde of Didi) I think Austine Romine is the biggest 1 year deal and d"Arnaud the biggest multi-year deal.

It's wild the Phillies are still considering Pivetta as someone that could potentially start for them. What am I missing? Are they just blaming the pitching coach?

Giglio retweeted some who claims to have Phillies sources (apparently has been accurate) who said the Phillies and Boras are engaged on Ryu.

Signing Ryu would vastly change my opinion of this off-season.

Before the market was set wasn't he projected around 3/50?

Would be great because I much enjoy when we have a talented Asian player on the team. Think it's probably cool for Korean Phillies fans to root for someone who looks like them.
