The Boston Red Sox could finally trade outfielder Jarren Duran to grab much-needed left-handed bullpen help, one expert says.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have done it again, outbidding the competition to add another superstar as they attempt to three-peat as World Series champs. Los Angeles signed Kyle Tucker to a four-year, $240 million deal on Thursday, trumping the New York Mets’ measly offer of four years and $220 million.
While the rest of the baseball world complains, Los Angeles fans are embracing the role as customized "VilLAin" hats, which use the team's interlocking LA logo in the middle, are taking off on the secondary market. In an office building in New Jersey on Friday, an employee walked in wearing a Dodgers jacket and a "VilLAin" hat.
As for Conforto, the Dodgers free agent flop is gaining interest from the White Sox, a team that he's previously been linked to throughout his career. Though he struggled mightily in L.A., Conforto should find more success in 2026 as his performance with the Dodgers appeared to be an outlier year.
