Overview
- Three marquee deals framed the market: Pete Alonso to the Orioles for five years and $155 million, Kyle Schwarber re-signing with the Phillies for five years and $150 million, and Edwin Díaz joining the Dodgers on a three-year, $69 million contract.
- Multiple reports say the Tigers held serious discussions about trading two-time Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal, with the Dodgers among interested teams, and Detroit’s Scott Harris emphasized there are no untouchables.
- The Orioles are reportedly pursuing Brewers ace Freddy Peralta, with The Athletic noting multiple suitors and no agreement close.
- The draft lottery at the meetings awarded the top pick to the White Sox and the No. 4 selection to the Giants, shaping the 2026 draft board.
