Trey Yesavage (knee) undergoes meniscus surgery

The Dodgers, Yankees, Mets and Blue Jays are also pursuing the 32-year-old right-hander. With so much interest, it sounds like Loáisiga should have no trouble landing at least a two-year deal. As the bidding war escalates, it’s likely that he’ll find a landing spot before the upcoming lockout.

The deal also includes a $2.5 million club option for the 2028 season. The 36-year-old southpaw posted a 4.60 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and a 25/13 K/BB ratio across 58 2/3 innings in 67 appearances out of the Yankees’ bullpen in 2026.

The 32-year-old is generating interest from multiple teams after a strong 2026 season in which he hit .295/.363/.502 with 21 homers and 72 RBI in 500 plate appearances for the Padres. With so much interest, it’s possible that a deal could come together quickly before the lockout.

Dean has been one of the top sluggers in the KBO since making the jump from MLB in 2023. He did his best work during the 2026 season, slashing an absurd .331/.427/.635 with 41 homers, 127 RBI and 114 runs scored across 640 plate appearances. Dean will earn $2 million on his one-year pact with the Twins.

The 29-year-old southpaw returned in September after a lengthy stint on the injured list and fired 4 2/3 innings of scoreless baseball for the Dodgers with a 5/0 K/BB ratio. He’s one of the most intriguing options available on the open market and should be able to land a lucrative multi-year pact.

The Javelinas beat the Surprise Scorpios 8-3 in the contest. Nori was the Phillies’ first-round pick in 2024, and he’s an athletic outfielder who could be a major stolen base threat who gets a chance to play in large part because of his defense. His overall offensive skill set is still very much a work-in-progress, but at at the age of 22, there’s time for it to develop.

Hartlieb heads to Philadelphia as organizational relief depth. He’ll presumably have a shot at competing for a bullpen spot in spring training. The well-traveled 32-year-old posted a serviceable 4.82 ERA across 28 innings over 18 appearances for the Athletics last season.

Rill adds that no deal is imminent. Marte’s inclusion in trade rumors once again comes as little surprise after a disappointing season where he slashed .249/.316/.432 with 78 runs scored, 22 home runs, 76 RBI and four steals across 624 plate appearances over 141 games. The 33-year-old second baseman still managed to finish as a top-12 option at the position for fantasy purposes, but he’s no longer the high-volume source of batting average and power production that made him one of the premier players at the position just a few years ago. A change of scenery could be ideal for both sides as Marte hits his mid-30’s following a turbulent year both on and off the field.

Francisca, who started at shortstop for the American League in the Fall Stars Game last week, led the fall circuit in batting average (.427), slugging percentage (.733) and OPS (1.227). The 20-year-old prodigy launched four homers in 17 games and also collected seven stolen bases. He’ll open next season back at Double-A Akron after hitting .272/.366/.513 across three minor-league levels this past season. He’s not on Cleveland’s 40-man roster, so his offseason won’t be impacted by the impending lockout. He’s a rising prospect that fantasy managers need to monitor closely next season.

As Twins GM Jeremy Zoll put it, “It’s something that we need to be open-minded to, knowing that it feels like an area of surplus but also want to be mindful of not eating into that too much since we know we’re going to need real depth to attack the season.” Assuming that Pablo López is ready to go after elbow surgery, the Twins would likely open up with a rotation of he, Joe Ryan, Taj Bradley, Dean Kremer and Bailey Ober, with Connor Prielipp, Mick Abel and Zebby Matthews in reserve. If they add a starter, that might push Kremer or Ober to the pen for a spell and perhaps lead to the team seeing what potential Prielipp or Matthews might have in short relief.
