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.

Dare we think that the New Year holds tremendous promise for progressive change?Yes! As practically every pundit notes, Trump's White House menagerie of billionaires, grifters, haters, prima donnas, and ideological kooks has soured even many MAGA faithful. More importantly, grassroots progressives have been organizing and mobilizing across the country, and – like eager ball players looking forward to a good season – they're pumped up!So, what could go wrong?Don't look now, but the National Democratic Party's “Washington Club” of high-dollar donors, clueless consultants, corporate lobbyists, and old-line politicos are still controlling much of the Party's money, strategy, and message. Possessing all the magnetism of their go-slow leader, Chuck Schumer, their game plan is the same as always: Run a Big Money, don't-rock-the-boat, Washington-based campaign, shove-aside grassroots activists, rely on negative attack ads, and tell everyone (again) that Trump will defeat himself.As Casey Stengel wailed when he managed the comically inept 1962 New York Mets baseball team – “Can't anyone here play this game?”Luckily, though, those insider losers are no longer our real Democratic team. While they've been piddling around in Congress playing wiffle ball with the Trumpers, Bernie-style progressives have been rebuilding the Party of the People in every state with hard-hitting, slick-fielding, big-league DEMOCRATS.And voters are responding with an enthusiastic YES! From Coast to coast – already lifting Zohran Mamdani to victory in New York, Katie Wilson in Seattle, and state legislative races in Iowa, Georgia, and Mississippi.Let's keep pushing to make 2026 the year we quit moaning about the lackluster Democratic Party… and turn it into the bright new majority party.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

Episode 127 of Tablesetters is a mini reaction pod, breaking down one of the winter's most surprising pitching moves and what it immediately tells us about how teams are positioning themselves for 2026. We open with the Houston Astros signing Tatsuya Imai to a three-year, $54 million contract that can reach $63 million through performance incentives, finalized just ahead of his January 2 posting deadline. The deal includes opt-outs after each season, giving Imai the flexibility to bet on himself at the major league level. Despite interest from the Yankees, Mets, Cubs, Phillies, and Orioles, Houston emerged as an unexpected but strategic landing spot. We examine why the market shifted from early long-term projections, how the deal structure balances risk and upside, and why the Astros felt comfortable moving decisively here. From there, we focus on who Imai is now, not the pitcher he was early in his career. After command issues and a difficult 2020 season that briefly pushed him to the bullpen, Imai rebuilt his profile beginning in 2021 and went on a dominant four-year run from 2022 through 2025. During that stretch, he established himself as one of Nippon Professional Baseball's most effective starters, culminating in a 1.92 ERA season with elite strikeout rates, improved control, and exceptional home-run suppression. We break down his mid-to-upper-90s fastball, deep secondary mix, and why evaluators see a higher ceiling than his early-career reputation suggested. The conversation then shifts to Houston's rotation outlook in a post-Framber Valdez era. With Valdez expected to depart in free agency, Imai slots in behind Hunter Brown, who broke out as one of the best pitchers in baseball in 2025. We project the Astros' 2026 rotation featuring Brown, Imai, Cristian Javier, Mike Burrows, and A.J. Blubaugh, while evaluating the importance of depth pieces such as Lance McCullers Jr., Spencer Arrighetti, Brandon Walter, J.P. France, Nate Pearson, Colton Gordon, Miguel Ullola, and others after a season defined by injuries. We close by connecting the dots between Houston's missed postseason in 2025, their recent rotation instability, and why this signing represents a calculated pivot rather than a headline-chasing move. At roughly $18 million per year with workload-based incentives and annual opt-outs, the Imai deal gives the Astros a legitimate one-two punch at the top of the rotation while preserving long-term flexibility. For Imai, it's both an opportunity and a leverage play. For Houston, it's a bet on development, velocity, and upward trajectory in the next phase of their competitive cycle. ⚾️ A rapid-response look at a market-shifting signing with long-term implications.

Both the Mets and Yankees are waiting for Cody Bellinger to make a decision...any decision.

Steve breaks down what it's really like sharing the desk with Willie Colon during a chaotic Jets season and gives his take on the Mets' offseason—including the move to let Pete Alonso walk in free agency.

SNY's Steve Gelbs joins the show to break down the fallout of the Mets letting Pete Alonso walk and what it's actually like surviving this Jets season behind the scenes with Willie. CLo unearths classic WFAN "debut" tapes of Jacob Wilkins with Mike Francesa, before diving into Joe Burrow's special breakfast habits. Willie shares his family's New Year's Eve vision board tradition and the importance of entering 2026 with accountability and positive energy.

Jerry and Willie Colon put a cap on 2025 with a packed New Year's Eve show.. From Willie's "trial by fire" debut with Mike Francesa and the "kumbaya" culture of modern athletes to the fallout of Pete Alonso's Mets exit and the Yankees' pursuit of Cody Bellinger. The guys navigate everything from Trevon Diggs' release and "out of control" college athletics. Joined by SNY's Steve Gelbs and FS1's Chris Broussard, they wrap up the year with Jerry's top "Moments of the Day," vision board traditions, and a look ahead at what a successful 2026 needs to look like for the Jets and Giants.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): Anthony Kay has had quite a baseball journey, living the life as a first-round pick with the Mets before being dealt at the 2019 trade deadline to Toronto. After a few years with the Blue Jays, the pitcher had stints with the Cubs and again in the Mets organization before taking his talents to Japan. It was overseas that Kay saw his career take off, leading to a newly signed, two-year deal with the White Sox. Kay joins Bradfo and Courtney Finnicum ('Pitch and Moan') to talk about what led him back to Major League Baseball, his impressions on some noteworthy players he played with and against in Japan, and why the White Sox were the best fit. There is also Kay's video game goal for the next three months.

It was only just 365 days ago that Jays fans were despairing, wondering why Ross Atkins still had a job after a nine year tenure that had culminated in a dreadful 2024, still smarting from Juan Soto's decision to sign with the Mets, trying to understand the Andrés Giménez acquisition, questioning whether Vladimir Guerrero Jr. could be signed to a contract extension, and feeling nothing but dread about the future, the state of the club's house of cards, and the wisdom of those in charge.Today they're viewed by players, fans, and the industry as a whole as one of the truly exemplary organizations in the sport, and potentially on the verge of ascending to marquee franchise status, having put together a brilliant, compelling, gritty, drama-filled, fun-as-hell campaign that took them to within mere milimetres of an unprobable World Series victory.It's been a hell of a trip around the sun, hasn't it?And this week we're looking back on all of it—from the low expectations, through the ugly start, to the coalescing of an elite team, to one of the all-time great—and all-time heartbreaking—seasons in the history of Canadian sports.

Segment 1 – Fantasy Questions of the NL West – Diamondbacks and RockiesArizona Diamondbacks1.Geraldo Perdomo broke out in a big way in 2025 with 20 home runs, 27 stolen bases, and a .290 batting average. The data suggests being wary of repeats in power and speed. What do you say?2.Jordan Lawlar – AB, HR, SB, and BA3.Are the Diamondbacks going to go to war with Alek Thomas in center field and Blaze Alexander in left field? If so, do you have any interest in either?4.I've got Brandon Pfaadt wrong, as I thought he would be more than a 5.25 ERA pitcher. Any hope, or should I just move on?5.How many waiver wire articles will Kevin Ginkle make this year? – Over/Under - 26.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)Colorado Rockies1.Brenton Doyle – HR, SB, and BA for 2026a.He's going as the 37th outfielder off the board. We will look around to see if it's too high or too low.2.Kyle Karros (574), Zac Veen (494) and Adael Amador (590).a.According to RosterResource, they all will start the year with a job. Order them in how you would draft them. Do you have any real interest in any of them?3.Victor Vodnik has the Closer gig, I think. Uhh…you interested?4.How many wins do the Rockies get in 2026 – they were 43-119 in 20255.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)Segment 2 – News and Notes1.The Athletics trade for Jeff McNeil, with the Mets receiving Yordan Rodriguez.a.a. The Mets pay 5.75 million of McNeil's contract, and it appears he will slot in at second base. Any interest? Would you have rather seen Darrel Hernaiz get some at-bats?b.b. Yordan Rodriguez is a young 17-year-old RHP with a fastball that can touch the mid-90s.2.The Marlins sign Pete Fairbanksa.The Marlins needed a closer and signed Fairbanks. I guess they think they can compete. What say you?3.The Pirates sign Ryan O'Hearna.The Pirates are continuing to get better, maybe marginally, but this feels like what the Royals did two years ago when they signed several mid-level Major Leaguers and did ok. Your thoughts?
