Mego, Lyons, and Turp get into some potential rumors regarding Josh McDaniels and the rest of the Patriots' front office. Will the offensive coordinator get a head coaching offer and will he actually accept it? Then, everyone should hope the holy trinity of Mike Vrabel, Eliot Wolf, and Ryan Cowden stick together in the Pats' front office otherwise it could all blow up. And, more has come out about just how aggressive the Red Sox are to bring back Alex Bregman, but either way both sides need each other and should make it happen.
From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Gordo, Sammy, and Pat are all finally in the same time zone to discuss the shocking signing of Kazuma Okamoto to the Blue Jays. What does this do for Toronto and more importantly the Red Sox for the rest of the offseason? Then, even though they haven't made any signings, the Sox have added almost the same amount of players as the Jays, but one definitely feels better than the other. And, Alex Bregman seemingly has an "aggressive" offer from the Sox, but if that report is leaked from Boston's end then who knows how aggressive the offer really is.

Francisco Rojas is back for another Phillies Today. On this episode, he discusses if he would let J.T. Realmuto walk if it meant they sign Bo Bichette or Alex Bregman. Also, a report from Ken Rosenthal on who the Phillies might be looking to platoon with Brandon Marsh. Lastly, the top five first baseman in team history.
Episode 128 of Tablesetters is a mini reaction pod focused on a pivotal stretch of the offseason where one signing, one trade market, and one free agent begin to reshape how teams are positioning themselves for 2026. We open in Toronto, where the Blue Jays officially make their long-anticipated breakthrough in the Japanese market by signing Kazuma Okamoto to a four-year, $60 million contract just ahead of the expiration of his 45-day posting window. The deal is a straight four-year agreement with no opt-outs, structured as a $5 million signing bonus, a $7 million salary in 2026, and $16 million salaries in each of the final three seasons, with Okamoto represented by the Boras Corporation. To create a 40-man roster spot, Toronto designated right-hander Paxton Schultz for assignment. MLB Trade Rumors ranked Okamoto 19th on its top 50 free agents list and projected a four-year, $64 million deal, putting the final terms right in line with expectations. The signing also triggers a $10.875 million posting fee to the Yomiuri Giants under the NPB–MLB posting system. From there, we break down what Okamoto's arrival does to the Blue Jays' roster construction. The 29-year-old projects as Toronto's regular third baseman, while also bringing experience at first base and in the outfield. His versatility creates ripple effects across the lineup, including a likely platoon with Addison Barger at third base, more consistent second base work for Ernie Clement, and a positional shift that moves Andrés Giménez from second base to everyday shortstop. We also examine how the picture changes if Bo Bichette re-signs, and how crowded things could become if Toronto lands another rumored target like Kyle Tucker. The signing adds another layer to an offseason for a Blue Jays team that came within two outs of winning Game 7 of the World Series, following earlier pitching additions like Dylan Cease, Cody Ponce, and Tyler Rogers. It also effectively closes the door on pursuits of Alex Bregman and Yoán Moncada unless Toronto makes the unconventional decision to deploy Okamoto primarily in the outfield. Next, we shift to the trade market, where Edward Cabrera has emerged as one of the most consequential arms potentially available. The Yankees are actively engaged in discussions with the Marlins while also remaining involved on Freddy Peralta, with the Mets and Cubs also expressing interest in Cabrera. We break down why Cabrera's 2025 season, his power profile, his remaining club control through 2028, and his projected $3.7 million arbitration salary make him such an attractive target. We also examine the injury concerns that complicate his value, the Yankees' urgent rotation needs with Gerrit Cole and Carlos Rodón set to open the year on the injured list, and why Cabrera's affordability matters for both New York and Chicago as they juggle payroll, roster needs, and other offensive pursuits. For the Mets, we look at how their rotation has remained largely untouched despite major position-player turnover, and why their collection of young infield talent could factor into any serious push for pitching. We close with the expanding market for Cody Bellinger, as the Cubs check in and join a group that already includes the Yankees, Dodgers, Giants, Mets, Angels, Blue Jays, and Phillies at various points this offseason. We discuss why Chicago's interest reads as due diligence rather than a clear pivot, how Bellinger fits their roster, and why prospect timelines complicate any reunion. From there, we focus on the Yankees, where Bellinger remains the top offseason priority and negotiations have escalated to a second formal offer. We break down the roster logjam his return would create, how it impacts Jasson Domínguez and Spencer Jones, and why a Bellinger deal could directly intersect with New York's pursuit of Edward Cabrera. Steve and Devin connect the dots across international markets, trade leverage, payroll pressure, and roster math, focusing less on headlines and more on what these developments reveal about how teams believe they need to be built to win in 2026. ⚾️ One signing changes the board, trade talks gain momentum, and leverage begins to shift.
KJ and Carroll recap the off field situations going on with Christian Barmore and Stefon Diggs. Mike Vrabel may be the best coach in the league to handle off the field issues. The Blue Jays signed Japanese star Infielder Kazuma Okamoto, does this take them out of the pursuit of Alex Bregman and Bo Bichette?
(0:00) Joe and McCarthy lead off the final hour with the new soccer stadium being built for the Revolution as calls come in. (13:10) Joe Mazzulla winning coach of the month and Jaylen Brown not winning player of the month are discussed as calls continue to come in, McCarthy also discusses the rumors around the Red Sox and Alex Bregman.

Send us a textFree agent hitters Cody Bellinger, Alex Bregman, & Kyle Tucker have still not yet found a team for the 2026 season as the dog days of winter continue.

But relief pitchers are off the board with Pete Fairbanks the last one to sign - he with the Marlins for 2 years. White Sox Sign Murakami and Pirates sign Ryan O'Hearn after trading for Brandon Lowe. Mets move Jeff McNeil to the A's. WBC rosters are shaping up with the USA team having a deep and talented group of players who've already accepted.

The biggest question now is how Team USA manager Mark DeRosa will use some of the game's biggest arms in order to try to shut down any competition that comes their way.Later, Jake and Jordan talk about some more free-agent signings that have gone down, including the San Diego Padres bringing back Michael King on a three-year deal, the New York Mets adding another former reliever from the New York Yankees and the possibility of Alex Bregman joining the Arizona Diamondbacks. The guys then make their picks for this week's edition of The Good, The Bad and The Uggla.1:01 – The Opener: Tarik Skubal joins Team USA27:12 – Scott Boras Scoreboard update32:16 – Around the League: Murakami, Bregman updates41:50 – Reliever market news53:08 – Padres re-sign Michael King1:02:38 – The Good, The Bad & The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
In a 90 minute sprint, Arcand gives his early thoughts on the Ravens and puts a stamp on any potential friction between Mike Vrabel and Josh McDaniels. it may be quiet, but keep an antenna up for something to occur down the road. Then, injuries on the defensive side of the ball along with having a hard time containing Josh Allen should create some worry for Patriots' fans ahead of Sunday night against Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. And, it looks like there's a blinking contest going on between the Red Sox and Diamondbacks when it comes to Ketel Marte and Alex Bregman.
With the Red Sox wanting to trade for Ketel Marte from the Diamondbacks, Arcand believes Arizona is trying to play mind games with Boston by showing interest in Alex Bregman.
Alex Bregman still hasn't signed with the Red Sox and we're getting more concerned by the day that he's not coming back. -FaceTime Unavailable -Lack Of Communication With Bregman -DBacks In The Mix -Jared On Threads -Sox Messing With Holiday Vibes -G1 Traded -Cotiyo / McAdam On Friday -Christmas Weather Look Ahead NEW MERCH: https://section10merch.com Use promo code “Jared” to get up to $1000 in bonus credits AND a special pick on Underdog!
