Jonathan India and Michael Massey are splitting time at 2B/OF, MJ's got a new swing, and Jac Caglianone is leaving an impact on Bobby Witt Jr. There's a good ‘ol competition going on in the outfield and we are here for it, with Nick Pratto being a name we highlight.

Taking a crack at what the 26-man roster will look like when the Royals break Spring Training.Rany Jazayerli (Co-Founder Baseball Prospectus/@Jazayerli) and Soren Petro (Sports Radio 810-WHB, 810whb.com/@SorenPetro) break down what the Royals will look like for Opening Day. Plus...- J.J. Picollo is extended through 2030.- Matt Quatraro's option for '26 is picked up.- Cole Ragans gets an extension... kind of?- The 26-man roster will be...- Only a couple questions with the position players.- The Rotation is easy.- Questions in the bullpen.

On this week's episode, we begin by discussing the Red Sox making a huge splash by signing Alex Bregman to a three-year, $120 million contract. From there, we discuss Nick Pivetta heading to the Padres, Clayton Kershaw's return to the Dodgers, extensions for Mark Kotsay, J.J. Picollo, Cole Ragans, and Geraldo Pedromo, new homes for Justin Turner, Ty France, Paul DeJong, Joey Gallo, John Means, Jacob Junis, Kendell Graveman and Cal Quantrill, and the latest in the long-list of injuries for Anthony Rendon.

Welcome to Episode 61 of TableSetters! The MLB offseason is still delivering major moves, and we've got plenty to dive into. The Red Sox finally landed their coveted right-handed bat, signing two-time World Series champion Alex Bregman to a three-year, $120 million deal. But there's one problem—Rafael Devers isn't budging from third base. With Bregman's defensive versatility and Boston's need for a more stable infield, how will Alex Cora manage this potential logjam? Could Bregman shift to second base, or will the Red Sox have to make a tough decision? Meanwhile, the Yankees have a dilemma of their own as Marcus Stroman is making it clear he won't accept a bullpen role, stating, “I'm a starter.” But with Gerrit Cole, Max Fried, Carlos Rodón, Luis Gil, and Clarke Schmidt already in the mix, where does Stroman fit in? With trade speculation heating up, we break down what the Yankees' next move could be. The Padres made another splash, signing Nick Pivetta to a four-year deal to solidify their rotation. With Pivetta joining a staff featuring Dylan Cease, Michael King, and Yu Darvish, does this signal a looming trade? San Diego is flirting with the luxury tax threshold, so we'll analyze whether they're making an all-in push or setting up for another move. College baseball is officially back, and Opening Weekend delivered absolute chaos. Six Top 25 teams lost to unranked opponents, exit velocities soared to MLB levels, and aces delivered elite performances. We break down all the biggest moments, from No. 4 Virginia falling to Michigan to Clemson and Oklahoma State putting on a power-hitting clinic. Florida ace Liam Peterson looked dominant, striking out 11 in six scoreless innings—does this set the tone for a breakout season? Plus, quick hits: John Means signs with Cleveland Frankie Montas shut down 6-8 weeks with a lat strain Royals extend GM J.J. Picollo and exercise Matt Quatraro's 2026 option Mike Trout moving to right field—what does this mean for his future? Geraldo Perdomo gets extended in Arizona There's a ton to break down, so don't miss this episode! Make sure to follow us on Instagram and X @TableSettersPod for all the latest updates.
