Craig Breslow kicked off the trade deadline moving Connelly Early to the @Nationals for Curtis Mead. But the fortunes of @RedSox changed when Alex Bregman signed with the Cubs and his replacement, Caleb Durbin, started hitting. @ForbesSports @IBWAA https://t.co/Dypu0L3WAB

Philadelphia showed out for All-Star Week, and the All-Star Village was massive and massively successful for @MLB and @CapitalOne with record crowds and merchandise sales. @ForbesSports ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/DOpaZ4ikB0

With his @MLB Home Run Derby win, @Cardinals Jordan Walker more than doubled his salary. And Junior Caminero of the @Rays got himself a 12.5% raise. @ForbesSports @IBWAA https://t.co/GMNtj5j8rF

[Dan Freedman @dffreedman]

In their proposal to the players, @MLB owners want a shorter amateur draft and to add an international draft among many other massive changes to the overall structure. @ForbesSports @IBWAA https://t.co/IxE8D40lU0

When John Mozeliak goes looking for a new manager for the @Angels, he may just need to look at a name already on the payroll, as Albert Pujols could be the perfect fit. @ForbesSports @IBWAA

The @Angels hired John Mozeliak as interim GM after firing Perry Minasian, but it will take a change even higher up the org chart to get this team back on track. @ForbesSports ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/Oeq3ASZetA

The Jaylen Brown trade may be the future of @MLB if the owners get the salary cap they want. Be careful what you wish for. @ForbesSports ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/5ouA7VgmGF

[Dan Freedman @dffreedman]

In the third installment on the CBA negotiations, @MLB owners want a salary cap to ensure competitive balance. This is, by far, their best argument. @ForbesSports ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/p7YMfwOfVU

Here is Part 2 in a series on @MLB proposal to @MLBPA ahead of the expiration of the CBA in December. The owners want a salary cap to protect themselves from themselves. @ForbesSports @IBWAA

In the first of a multi-part series on MLB’s proposals to the MLBPA, we take a look at “cost certainty” as a way to try to boost franchise values. @ForbesSports @MLB ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/HX22LsuXyU

The @SFGiants are having issues on the field, off the field, with their fans, with their most expensive player, with their front office, and with their community. @ForbesSports ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/RoyV7lLInB

[Dan Freedman @dffreedman]

How is possible that the @RedSox traded Rafael Devers, lost nearly everyone they got for him, traded for a third baseman, and still need a right-handed hitting third baseman at the deadline? And he might come from the Giants. @ForbesSports @IBWAA https://t.co/6x4BIfTaMX

[Dan Freedman @dffreedman]

The ⁦@Athletics⁩ are playing 6 games in their future home of Las Vegas this week. The first 3 against the ⁦@Brewers⁩ were doozies and the ⁦@Rockies⁩ are coming in this weekend. @ForbesSports ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/SEUBgUqFLn

[Dan Freedman @dffreedman]

The drama with the ⁦@Pirates⁩ is now over as pitcher Carmen Mlodzinski finally agreed to go the bullpen after being put on the restricted list. @PiratesFanForum @ForbesSports ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/QPhqFNWf9x

[Dan Freedman @dffreedman]

Shohei Ohtani continues to do things that no one has seen before and he continues to get better. Last night was just another example of why he is the best to ever play the game. @Dodgers @ForbesSports @IBWAA https://t.co/bLhhL7gvjY

[Dan Freedman @dffreedman]

I previously wrote @PeteCrowArm needed a day off to reset. Craig Counsell felt differently, and he was right and I was wrong. PCA is tearing it up and silenced the hecklers against the @Cardinals this past weekend. @PCA4FC @Cubs @ForbesSports @IBWAA

3 Japanese players came to @MLB this season, and all 3 are making impacts for their teams. One has done it loudly, and is now on the IL; one has done it quietly; and one is just now coming into his own. @whitesox @BlueJays @astros @ForbesSports @IBWAA

Chris Taylor, who gave @Dodgers fans so many great memories, retired from baseball over the weekend. He had a terrific career - on and off the field. @ForbesSports @IBWAA https://t.co/HuE7T60b6q

[Dan Freedman @dffreedman]

I wrote that the @Cubs need to give Pete Crow-Armstrong a day off to clear his head. Then he went out and homered off a lefty, drew a walk, and accounted for the Cubs’ only runs (4-2 loss to the @Astros). 🤷‍♂️ @ForbesSports ⁦@IBWAA⁩ https://t.co/Gl0j4BcgYs
