Cody Bellinger had dislocated the shoulder before, but never as publicly as during his celebration of a pivotal home run with a teammate.

A good rule of thumb for the parlor game that will ensue over Theo Epstein’s next move might be: Whatever your guess is, think bigger.

“I do feel quite a bit of responsibility,” Kim Ng said during her introductory news conference with the Miami Marlins.


Nationals sign Yasmany Tomás to minor league deal with spring training invite

Yasmany Tomás is coming off a six-year, $68.5 million contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks. During it, he never became a major league regular.

How Jim Hickey’s focus on the change-up could help the Nationals’ pitching staff

Joe Ross, Erick Fedde and Austin Voth could all used an improved change-up. Their new pitching coach could be keen on making that happen.

A bulked-up Victor Robles had a down year. He will look to fine-tune his game in winter ball.

Robles, 23, is a big key for the Nationals moving forward. They need him to figure it out.

Rick Hummel, the Hall of Fame baseball writer for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, admitted to his clerical error on the electronic ballot.

"I am both humbled and eager to continue building the winning culture our fans expect and deserve," Ng said in a statement.

While the White Sox stand behind the Tony La Russa hiring — widely panned at the time, in Chicago and nationally — there is now a tangible cost to doing so.

The 76-year-old, who joined the White Sox last month after nine years away from managing, had previously been arrested for drunken driving in 2007.

Jeff Luhnow’s lawsuit for breach of contract accuses Houston Astros owner Jim Crane and MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred of having “scapegoated” the former general manager.

Devin Williams, who dazzled out of Milwaukee's bullpen, and Mariners slugging outfielder Kyle Lewis are named MLB's top rookies.

Star shortstop Tim Anderson has not been shy about expressing himself on the field, while new White Sox manager Tony La Russa has been vocal about some of baseball's so-called unwritten rules.

General manager Brodie Van Wagenen and special assistant to the general manager Omar Minaya are among the departures as Steve Cohen's $2 billion-plus purchase becomes official.

Justin Turner's apology for returning to the field to celebrate with his Dodgers teammates after they won the World Series last month was enough for MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred.

Boston's move to renew ties with Alex Cora was not a surprise to anyone who had been paying attention.

In interviews, all four Black managers who have coached in the World Series say more needs to be done to diversify baseball’s upper ranks.

Yes, he’s old and longtime friends with the White Sox owner. He was still a good hire.

The Tigers are hoping Hinch can do for them what he did for the Astros — minus, of course, the cheating scandal.

The White Sox named La Russa their new manager on Thursday, hiring the 76-year-old to guide their young, talented roster.

In one of America's fiercest election years, the Hall of Fame pitcher ran one of its gentlest campaigns.

The pandemic might have cheated the Dodgers out of their place as one of baseball's greatest teams.

By returning to the field in the aftermath of the World Series win, Turner, and the members of the Dodgers who backed him, thrust baseball directly into the larger societal divide over how to deal with coronavirus.
