We've added a 2026 Trade Deadline tab to The Board so you can easily track all of the prospects who've been traded: www.fangraphs.com/prospects/th... Finally, we've tweaked the homepage layout to make it easier to find all of our trade reactions:

when you invalidate people's most intimate and important human relationships, they *will* keep talking about it, buddy
Giants pitcher JT Brubaker, a special little birthday boy, surprised people are still talking about his Pride Night hat protest: “We felt there wasn’t going to be as much kickback on it. … Players have done it in the past and it didn’t seem like it was blown up that big. … At the end of the day, I just want this to be done and over with. We’re here to play baseball. This is going on almost a week now. Just play ball, that’s all I want to do.”

Please read our baseball website!
Screenshot of a Slack message from me to Davy Andrews, the author of this piece asking: "here, wouldn't a zombie be able to survive losing an arm? do we need to add an aside about how one-armed zombies are still a threat?: Zombie flesh is notoriously detachable. But it’s hard to see that trick working more than two or three times before the zombies get wise. You can do better."
