As the calendar flips to the new year, it's a time for everyone to set new goals and make predictions for the months ahead -- and MLB teams are no different. With that in mind, each of our beat reporters was asked to make one prediction for their respective team

Every year as the calendar flips, we at MLB Pipeline gaze into crystal balls and turn our collective attention to potential breakout prospects for the coming season. Last year in this space, we listed Josue De Paula (Dodgers), Bryce Eldridge (Giants), Kevin McGonigle (Tigers), Jacob Melton (Astros), Lazaro Montes (Mariners),

When a baseball player reaches the pinnacle of the sport, a place in Cooperstown, his Hall of Fame plaque does not discriminate. If that player spent 20 seasons with a team, it gets listed under his name; if a player spent 20 games with a team, it also gets listed.

We’ve officially turned over the calendar to 2025 this week. Of course in baseball, it feels like we began to flip the calendar the moment Dodgers right-hander Walker Buehler struck out Yankees outfielder Alex Verdugo in Game 5 to end the World Series on Oct. 30. Here at MLB Pipeline,

Each Major League season is a stage for players to raise their game to previously unseen heights. Perhaps a blossoming star becomes unquestionably elite. Or perhaps a big league newcomer makes the most of his opportunity. Regardless, these types of breakout seasons can help turn an under-the-radar club into a

A new season brings new opportunities for every player in a team’s system. This is especially true for a team’s Minor League prospects, who look to build on the previous season’s accomplishments and continue to make a name for themselves as they forge a path to the Majors. Here’s a

This roster moves and injury updates page will be updated throughout the offseason as news happens.

At this point in the offseason, every team could still use some help -- and plenty of top free agents remain available. But taking into account age, position, skill set and projected cost, who is the perfect fit for each club? To answer that question, we enlisted the help of

MLB's reporters chronicled the 2024 baseball season from start to finish. But a picture is worth 1,000 words -- and they snapped plenty of those, too. From Spring Training through the World Series, on and off the field, our reporters were able to capture photos of so many unique baseball

HOUSTON – Season tickets, group tickets and premium tickets for the 2025 Astros season are now on sale, with the club playing at renamed Daikin Park next season. To purchase tickets, click here. Tickets to individual games will go on sale early next year.

As we bid adieu to 2024, there are certain games from this past season that we’ll never forget. There are, of course, the slugfests, the back-and-forth contests with several lead changes and games that treated us to epic finishes. And then there are the ones that were so crazy, we

Part of what makes baseball the best are the feats and amazing stats accruing left and right, every single day. We chronicle them throughout the year, but there’s no better time than before the calendar flips to take a look back. It’s hard to pick just one per team after

HOUSTON – There’s a lot that Christian Walker likes about Houston. He’s admittedly intrigued by the barbecue scene, is tantalized by the short porch at what will be Daikin Park in 2025 and is thrilled at the chance to play for a team that’s been to the playoffs eight years

At the end of the day, a home run's distance has no impact on its usefulness. From the shortest (which, in 2024, traveled 318 feet) to the longest (480 feet), it's still just a run on the board, give or take a few baserunners. But let's be real -- moonshots

Kristian Campbell entered 2024 as a supplemental fourth-round pick the previous July who had fashioned a nice pro debut. He ended it as the No. 10 prospect on MLB Pipeline's Top 100 Prospects list, not to mention its Hitting Prospect of the Year and the MiLB Breakout Player of the

From stunning comebacks to thrilling walk-offs to dominant pitching performances, every team had its share of memorable triumphs in 2024. But what was each club’s signature win of the season?

There was no shortage of storylines in the 2024 season, which featured some of the best individual seasons and performances that baseball has ever seen -- we're looking at you Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge. Which single-game performances were the best? We asked each of our 30 beat writers which

We don’t only deal in tools around here. Performance (i.e. what players do with those tools) matters, too. Stats form much of baseball's vocabulary. It’s part of how we tell the stories of the game. Look no further than the 2024 Major League season, when Shohei Ohtani recorded the first

HOUSTON -- When the Astros lost star outfielder George Springer in free agency to the Blue Jays after the 2020 season, they had Kyle Tucker set to emerge as a star. When Houston lost star shortstop Carlos Correa to the Twins in free agency a year later, it had shortstop
