Pete Alonso potentially leaving the Mets? This could reshape the NL East landscape. What kind of contract do you think he commands, and which teams are the best fit? Is this a good move for the Mets, even if they re-sign Jesse Winker?

The Dodgers, Padres, AND Blue Jays are reportedly finalists for Roki Sasaki. This is a HUGE development. Which team needs him most, and what are they willing to give up? Could we see a bidding war of historic proportions? I predict Sasaki ends up a Dodger. Discuss.

The Cubs welcoming back Sammy Sosa is fascinating. Does this open the door for other steroid-era players to return to their former teams? Is this a good look for baseball? Let the debate begin.

Finally, Bob Uecker passing away is a sad day for baseball. Share your favorite Uecker memories and stories. What made him such a beloved figure in the game?
