Lorenzo Cain has agreed on a 5-year, $80M deal with the #Brewers, source says. It’s the biggest free agent contract of the offseason. The deal includes no-trade protection and significant award bonuses. Milwaukee building a super outfield with addition of Yelich and Cain.

Defensively I'll take him in RF over Fowler.
Last year was Almora's first year actually playing a meaningful number of games and you could really see his progress at the plate as the season went on. He was probably having the best consistently good AB's of any Cubs player.
And as long as Schwarber isn't leading off I dont see why he cant match or beat Ozuna's offense. I'm eager to see what he looks like in the field this year since hes been working all offseason on his body.
I don't expect Ozuna or Pham to maintain what they did last season. [Reply]
Rotation really seems like it could use another proven arm. Hoping there might be some decent values with many of the top FA starting pitchers still on the market but haven’t read of any interest shown by the cards. [Reply]

Not sure why the Cardinals are so damn loyal to Wainwright and aren't being linked to either Arrieta or Darvish. Maybe they are just holding out for Kershaw next year because the Dodgers are clearly going to let him walk away after he opts out. [Reply]

I doubt they are serious about Kershaw. I did think they might go after a middle of the rotation guy. Mikolas could easily be a bust. [Reply]
