Baseball Maelstrom 03-02-2025 Home | | | Breaking News |  | Sunday, March 2nd, 2025: BM News: Spring Training Begins Spring training is more than just laid-back, carefree living in warm-weather climes. For clubs, it's about self-evaluation. For players, it's about making the big squad, or, failing that, impressing club officials enough to earn a promotion in the minor ranks. For team doctors, it begins the daily struggle against injury, illness, tiredness, and general disrepair. Hardly the lackadaisical atmosphere portrayed in the media. |  | Thursday, February 6th, 2025: Star LF Dacosta Settles on Seattle Even though they see him as a greedy tongue-wagger, Seattle fans were nonetheless relieved that Ricky Dacosta inked a deal with the organization today. There's no disputing his talent, and there's no doubt that he's worth a pretty penny, although maybe not the $14,920,000 offered to him.
To date Dacosta has a .280 career batting average and has totaled 237 home runs. |  | Thursday, February 6th, 2025: Veteran Robinett Agrees to 2-Year Deal Los Angeles fans could barely contain their jubilation as Dale Robinett, considered one of the best at his position, opted to sign with the club.
The deal, estimated at $5,800,000 over 2 years, is seen as a masterstroke for the General Manager's office and could well go down as one of the shrewdest moves in club history.
During his career Robinett has appeared in 731 games, logging 800 innings with 515 strikeouts. He has carved out a 3.83 ERA with 62 wins and 67 losses and posted 268 saves. | | | | | Today's Games | | American League | | Away Team | Home Team | Time | Starting Pitcher Away Team | Starting Pitcher Home Team | | Cleveland (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Kansas City (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 3:05 pm | RHP D.Goosen (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | LHP K.Skeen (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Chicago (A) (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Minnesota (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 7:05 pm | RHP H.*Fujimoto* (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | RHP C.Locascio (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Texas (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Seattle (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 1:05 pm | LHP R.*Johnson* (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | LHP R.Gutierrez (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Milwaukee (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Detroit (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 2:05 pm | | LHP C.Stemple (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Toronto (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Baltimore (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 7:05 pm | RHP M.Rockett (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | | Boston (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Oakland (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 1:05 pm | RHP C.Eggert (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | RHP W.Chojiro (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Anaheim (0-0, Road: 0-0) | New York (A) (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 7:05 pm | LHP R.Span (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | RHP G.*Maddux* (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | National League | | Away Team | Home Team | Time | Starting Pitcher Away Team | Starting Pitcher Home Team | | San Diego (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Atlanta (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 7:05 pm | RHP P.*Alexander* (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | LHP A.Aguiar (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | San Francisco (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Los Angeles (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 2:05 pm | RHP J.Kincer (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | RHP R.Roberts (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Chicago (N) (0-0, Road: 0-0) | New York (N) (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 1:05 pm | RHP T.McDonald (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | RHP J.Johnstone (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Pittsburgh (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Philadelphia (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 7:05 pm | RHP J.Ricio (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | RHP B.*Gibson* (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Houston (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Tokyo (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 3:05 pm | RHP W.Berns (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | RHP Y.Shiraishi (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | St. Louis (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Cincinnati (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 7:05 pm | RHP A.Heatherly (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | RHP L.Grayson (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | Montreal (0-0, Road: 0-0) | Homestead (0-0, Home: 0-0) | 7:05 pm | RHP M.Zorrilla (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | LHP A.Chace (0-0, 0.00 ERA) | | |
