Post<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>The Twins, at least for now, view Carlos Correa&#8217;s deal as a 10-year, $270 million deal (although we know it&#8217;s $200 million guaranteed over six years).  \u2026 The late rushing twins had a wonderful winter. Pablo Lopez and the infield candidate acquired in the Luis Araez trade \u2014 Jose Salas \u2014 have the potential to be a big hit and are &#8220;off the charts.&#8221; The Twins have checked in on Yuri Gurriel and may be interested in a very low deal. The Astros people like him, so he can&#8217;t rule out a return. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"no\" height=\"200\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm\/?e=NYPH4761361471&amp;light=true%20\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>The Marlins are moving people across the field to get more offense. For many years he is 2B Jean Segura playing 3B, Joey Wendle 3B playing SS and Jazz Chisholm 2B playing CF. Anyway, it&#8217;s a start. Some wonder if Segura ends up in SS (his original position) and Wendle returns to 3B. <\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n<p>Enrique Hernandez is the main SS for the Red Sox. Like Chisholm, Hernandez is enthusiastic about the move, Red Sox chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom said on The Post&#8217;s podcast &#8220;The Show.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Negotiations to sell the Angels were progressing well, but rumor has it that things are in &#8220;turmoil&#8221; with the Nationals thanks to an unresolved MASN issue.  Lerners on the Capitals and Wizards partner Ted Leonsis is one of his few interested parties.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/__i\/rss\/rd\/articles\/CBMiWWh0dHBzOi8vbnlwb3N0LmNvbS8yMDIzLzAxLzI2L21sYi10ZWFtcy1oYXZlLXBsZW50eS1vZi1vcHRpb25zLWxlZnQtaW4tZnJlZS1hZ2VudC1tYXJrZXQv0gFdaHR0cHM6Ly9ueXBvc3QuY29tLzIwMjMvMDEvMjYvbWxiLXRlYW1zLWhhdmUtcGxlbnR5LW9mLW9wdGlvbnMtbGVmdC1pbi1mcmVlLWFnZW50LW1hcmtldC9hbXAv?oc=5\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Why good left-handed relievers like Andrew Chafin, Matt Moore, Brad Hand and Zach Britton are still looking for work is a mystery. &#8220;Strange,&#8221; one<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11413,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":[],"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11412","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb","two-columns"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/zack-britton-mlb-free-agency.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11412","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11412"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11412\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11413"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11412"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11412"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atswins.ai\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
