The Houston Astros reportedly reached an agreement Thursday to re-sign relief pitcher Tony Sipp on a three-year, $18 million deal.  

Third baseman Adrian Beltre has been with the Texas Rangers since they signed him before the 2011 season. If the franchise has its way, he will stay with them until he retires.

The Houston Astros have reportedly acquired a piece that bolsters their youthful core and keeps them in line as a World Series contender right now, and maybe over the next couple of years.

The Chicago White Sox struggled to score runs last season, so they added some offense Wednesday in the form of third baseman Brett Lawrie.

After a magnificent start to 2015 for the San Francisco Giants, outfielder Nori Aoki suffered a concussion and was unable to return to action for a prolonged period of time.  

In a deal that sent Mark Trumbo to the Baltimore Orioles, the Seattle Mariners acquired utility man Steve Clevenger on Tuesday, per CBS Sports' Jon Heyman. 

After just one season as a member of the Oakland Athletics, infielder Brett Lawrie could very well be on the move via trade this offseason.

Report: A's 'Likely' to Deal Lawrie

Friday, Nov. 27

In the wake of the A's acquiring second baseman Jed Lowrie from the Houston Astros Wednesday, Lawrie looks to be the odd man out in Oakland.

If the Kansas City Royals taught the world anything in going to the World Series in 2014 and winning the Commissioner's Trophy in 2015, it's that defense matters. Like, a lot.

Apparently, the Los Angeles Angels were paying very close attention.

Catchers generally get plenty of chances to prove themselves in Major League Baseball, and veteran backstop Geovany Soto now has a new lease on life after agreeing to a deal with the Los Angeles Angels in free agency.

From the sound of things, you'd think Robinson Cano is the worst baseball player, the biggest whiner and the most despicable human being ever.

In reality, he's not that bad of a guy. Or that bad of a player, really.

But if ever there was a time to acknowledge the honeymoon phase of his 10-year, $240 million contract with the Seattle Mariners is over, it sure seems like now.
