The Twins finalized an $10.5 million, one-year contract Sunday with Simmons, strengthening their infield for 2021 as they seek a third straight AL Central division title and attempt to stop their record postseason losing streak.
Doolittle, 34, was acquired by the Nationals in a midseason trade with the Oakland A’s in 2017. He instantly became a fixture at the back end of their bullpen, recording 75 saves in 147 regular-season appearances for the team. Doolittle’s best season came in 2018, when he posted a 1.60 ERA with 25 saves across 45 innings while making his second All-Star Game.

Anderson will battle for a spot in the Phillies’ 2021 rotation and, with that $4M price tag, likely has an inside track to make some starts.

And the bullpen role is probably the safest landing spot to accomplish that. Hopefully we look up at the end of the year and he's got an ample amount of innings, therefore we're comfortable with him starting the following year."
The Cardinals will be paying Dexter Fowler more money to NOT play for them than they’ll be paying Nolan Arenado to PLAY for them
“I’m aware this is not a popular decision, but I promise, it was not made with haste,” Monfort said Tuesday. “This brings closure to something we’ve been dealing with for over a year.”
The Tigers have lost three players via waiver claims this offseason: Alcantara, right-hander Anthony Castro (Toronto Blue Jays) and outfielder Troy Stokes Jr. (Pittsburgh Pirates). Castro and Stokes were later designated for assignment by their new clubs, cleared waivers and got sent to the minors.
