Blessed with a smooth left-handed swing, Corey Seager and his rise to being the top prospect in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization is no surprise. 

A deep group of pitchers has made this year's free-agent class an interesting one, but MLB teams have an opportunity to work outside the box with a number of international free agents.

This is the time of year when the conversations around MLB are dominated by free agency. The chatter regarding the top players available is often so loud that those rumored to be on the trade block are often overlooked.

Well overlook no more. We are going to discuss some trade ideas based on the latest speculation around the game.

With the general manager meetings getting underway Monday in Arizona, the hot-stove rumor mill is just getting started, and already the Atlanta Braves have been linked to several moves. While many teams’ rumors are rumors of addition, many of the Braves rumors thus far have been rumors of subtraction.

The first MLB offseason move already carries major fantasy baseball repercussions.

Rather than accept a $15.3 million qualifying offer to stay with the Colorado Rockies, Michael Cuddyer bolted to the New York Mets, signing a two-year contract on Monday, as ESPN New York's Adam Rubin reports.

During the regular season, teams usually call up their top prospects to fill a role that’s been affected by injuries or productivity issues.

While those obviously aren’t relevant concerns in the offseason, teams still have to consider the futures of its top prospects when addressing roster concerns caused by free-agent departures.

After looking at all the key positions individually, it's now time for the final stop on the B/R MLB Offseason 100.

The complete list.

Believe it or not, the New York Yankees don’t plan on being big spenders this offseason. At least compared to previous years.

Like muscle cars at an auto show, they're lined up all shiny and gleaming. Cole Hamels. Matt Kemp. Carl Crawford. Andre Ethier.

Want 'em? Make an offer. Vroom!

The MLB offseason is now in full swing, and with the hot stove kicking into high gear, there are no shortage of rumors to sift through each morning from around the league.

The first big surprise of the offseason came on Monday, when the New York Mets wasted little time signing Michael Cuddyer after he declined his qualifying offer from the Colorado Rockies.
