LB rumors: Max Scherzer expected to sign soon with Mets, Giants, Dodgers, Angels among suitors
Here's the latest from the MLB hot stove
Matt Snyder
The collective bargaining agreement between Major League Baseball's owners and the players is set to expire on Wednesday night. It is assumed an agreement won't be reached in the coming days, meaning free agency and trade talk will be completely shut down and a lockout will be put in place. In the meantime, perhaps there will be a flurry of moves, as there might be some players who don't want to go several weeks (months?) without knowing where they'll play in 2022.
One signing has already been reported on Sunday, as the Rays have scooped up Corey Kluber (full story here).
As for the rest, let's dive into the rumors of the day.
Scherzer decision coming soon?
Max Scherzer is heading to his age-37 season, but he's also coming off a season in which he finished third in Cy Young voting. The three-time Cy Young winner and future Hall of Famer is still an ace. As such, there are no shortage of suitors despite what is likely to be a multi-year deal with a really high average annual value.
He is expected to decide on a new home before the expected lockout, reports Jon Heyman of MLB Network, with the Mets, Dodgers, Giants and Angels being mentioned as top suitors.
Mariners showing interest in Bryant
The Mariners are among the teams showing interest in signing free agent third baseman/utility man Kris Bryant, reports Robert Murray of Fansided. As opposed to Scherzer and Gausman above, however, Bryant is not expected to sign before the expiration of the CBA, Murray reports. Given that Bryant's agent is Scott Boras, who loves to draw free agency out in order to find the best possible offer, this isn't all too surprising.
The Mariners and Bryant are a good fit. He could handle third base on an everyday basis, but he could also play any of the three outfield spots, if need be. They've already added Adam Frazier, likely to take over second base and we've previously pointed out they needed at least one infielder plus another big bat.
Blue Jays add reliever
The Blue Jays have agreed to sign free agent reliever Yimi García to a two-year, $11 million deal that also includes a club option for a third year, reports Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.
García, 31, made 39 appearances with the Marlins last season before being traded to the Astros and making 23 appearances for them. In his 57 2/3 innings, he pitched to a 4.21 ERA and 1.16 WHIP with 60 strikeouts against 13 unintentional walks. He's middle relief depth for the Jays.
B hot stove: How baseball's impending lockout is impacting free agency
Free agency will likely be halted this week
R.J. Anderson
Major League Baseball's owners are expected to lock out the players this week, after the current Collective Bargaining Agreement expires at 11:59 p.m. ET on Dec. 1. The lockout, which will be MLB's first work stoppage since 1994-95, will remain in place until a new CBA can be agreed upon and then ratified by the owners and the players union.
Given that it's been nearly three decades since the last time the league shut down, you might wonder what exactly it means for the hot stove. Below, we've tried our best to answer five questions about the looming lockout and how it'll impact transactions.
1. Can free agents sign during the lockout?
Nope. You won't see Carlos Correa, Corey Seager, or any other notable free agent put pen to paper during the lockout. If they're a member of the MLB Players Association then they are not eligible to change teams during the work stoppage. Those players will have to wait until after the new CBA is ratified to sign; depending on when the CBA is agreed upon, that could force them to make quick decisions.
2. What about Seiya Suzuki?
Suzuki is an outfielder with Nippon Professional Baseball's Hiroshima Toyo Carp. In addition to being the top international free agent available this winter, he's one of the top free agents available overall, ranking 15th on our top-50 list. In a normal offseason, MLB teams would have just 30 days after Suzuki was "posted" to reach an agreement with him; otherwise, he'd remain in Japan. This offseason, however, is expected to see Suzuki's 30-day window paused for as long as the work stoppage lasts, likely resulting in the process being stretched out beyond its normal tidiness.

The lockout is potential leverage for the Dodgers dealing with guys like Seager if they sense this might be acrimonious.

$11 mil for Yumpin Yimini? That’s five point five per year.
Let’s say Scherzer is ten times the pitcher Garcia is (which is being fairly generous to Yimi).
Does Mad Max get $55 mil / year over two or three years? Yikes! As if Boras didn’t already have enough leverage!
GO DODGERS!!!

He wasn't very effective much of the time as I recall. I don’t believe Yimini was a Dodger last year - he signed a one year deal after the 2020 season with the Marlins and was then traded to the Asshoes. But you’re right - he was never one of my favourites either and gave up a lot of moon shots in close games. I think he and Boom Boom Baez were from the same mold. GO DODGERS!!! |

Dodgers' Max Muncy reveals his elbow injury is torn UCL: 'I'm not recovering as quick as I would like'
Muncy got hurt on the final day of the 2021 regular season
Matt Snyder
All-Star Dodgers infielder Max Muncy seriously injured his left elbow during the last game of the 2021 MLB regular season on a collision at first base.
At the time, the word from the team was that Muncy had dislocated his elbow and that there was a chance he could play in the World Series, if they advanced that far. We never got the chance to find out any further injury details as the Dodgers were eliminated by the Braves in the NLCS.
Here's a look at the play that sidelined Muncy for October: A torn UCL? That would be the ulnar-collateral ligament, which is the elbow ligament that when torn usually requires the notorious "Tommy John surgery" to be repaired.
There are non-surgical ways to treat the injury and given that this is Muncy's non-throwing arm, it seems that's the route he and the Dodgers have chosen. It also seems like it'll be a long road back -- remember, even if he doesn't throw with that arm, it's quite integral to his swing -- even without surgery being necessary.
We won't speculate as to how long. We'll just lay out how long we have until different key dates, assuming the impending lockout doesn't delay anything on the field.
Spring training position players report generally around Feb. 20. That would be around 12 weeks or three months from now.
ng training position players report generally around Feb. 20. That would be around 12 weeks or three months from now.
Opening day for the Dodgers is March 31. That would be about 17 1/2 weeks away, so a touch over four months from now.
Memorial Day weekend is roughly six months away.
The All-Star break is about 7 1/2 months away.
Speculate away how long it'll take Muncy to get back up to MLB game
Muncy, 31, was a stabilizing force in the Dodgers' offense last year as the club through several major injuries and was still one of the better groups in baseball. He hit .249/.368/.527 (138 OPS+) with 26 doubles, two triples, 36 homers, 94 RBI, 95 runs and 4.9 WAR. He finished 10th in the NL in MVP voting.

x Scherzer contract: Mets give three-time Cy Young winner largest AAV in MLB history
Scherzer eclipsed the previous record, set by Gerrit Cole during the 2019-
By R.J. Anderson
w York Mets are putting the finishing touches on an agreement with right-handed starter Max Scherzer for a three-year contract worth $130 million. Such a contract would set a Major League Baseball record for the highest average annual value (AAV).
Scherzer's contract works out to $43.3 million AAV, exceeding the previous record that was set by Yankees ace Gerrit Cole ($36 million) during the 2019-20 offseason. Cole himself shattered a mark that was set by Mike Trout, when he signed an extension worth more than $35 million annually with the Angels.

1 min read7, ranked No. 7 on CBS Sports top-50 free agents list. Here's what we wrote at the time:
Scherzer would have ranked a touch higher prior to the "dead arm" issues he experienced during the postseason. Alas, we had no choice but to dock him without having a good feel for what, if anything, those woes will mean for him in the future. If Scherzer is right as rain, he's still one of the top pitchers in the majors thanks to his special blend of stuff and guile.
s addition caps off a frenzied week for the Mets. New general manager Billy Eppler agreed to terms with a trio of position players last Friday, inking infielder Eduardo Escobar, utility player Mark Canha, and outfielder Starling Marte. Those three received contracts worth more than $120 million combined.
Prior to signing Scherzer, the Mets had been connected to right-hander Kevin Gausman, who has since signed a five-year pact with the Toronto Blue Jays worth $110 million.
