Happy Friday, baseball fans! Our stove is getting a little spark back, and we couldn’t be happier.
Here’s a roundup of what’s going on in the American League East.
- Cleveland has signed Edwin Encarnacion, so A+ to them for being the team that officials commits to this circus of “showing interest in”.
- But the interest must go on, and it’s found its way into the heart of the Padres for Jered Weaver.
- At least we’re getting a little action, right? The Pirates have re-signed Ivan Nova to a 3-year deal, so that’s exciting! Anyone...anyone at all?
- The Marlins bullpen literally makes no sense but hey what else is new.
- Maybe, just maybe, there’s a little hope for the Angels?
- Jurickson Profar is not past his potential stardom...yet. Confused on who we’re referencing? We figured.
