Well, he didn't have a good year so makes sense to take that sure deal.

Yeah he may well have had to settle for 11 or 12. I'm sure the liking it there (and them being a contender) doesn't hurt. Plus if they struggle, he'll get traded.

Reds waived Austin Wynns. He only played 7 games for them this year but in 2022 and 2023 he played a whole lot more than Stubbs did (for the Giants in 2022 and mostly the Rockies in 2023) which I reckon goes to show you just how poor the back-up catching pool is.

Didn't go as well for Donny Sands, who technically beat Wynns out in 2022 hitting well for LV and got a few games with the Phillies. Never got back to the bigs and spent part of this past season in the Mexican League.

The Orioles plan to name Cody Asche hitting coach, reports Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com (X links). Kubatko also reported earlier today that Baltimore was hiring Tommy Joseph away from the Mariners as an assistant hitting coach.

TdA has been a pain for the Phillies ever since has was traded. I’m happy to see him in the AL and not the NL. Wish him well. He’s been a solid player. I wonder what that means for Logan O’Hoppe?

I'll take him back. get on the phone DD.

Opening up that Allentown roster spot for Stubbs (well, I guess technically Marchan would already do that too).

I knew he was with LA (and is going to get a ring) but his final Phillies stint seems so long ago now I can barely believe it was just this past season.
