Welcome to the first full week of 2026. Posting windows for Japanese talent are closing, so we’re seeing the final results of those moves. The hot stove is also getting hot again, so we’re going to see things pick up pace with the trade and free agent markets, which is something we look forward to every year. The countdown to Spring Training is also underway (it’s this year! It’s less than two months away!), so it’s already starting to feel like we are seeing a light at the end of the tunnel.
With that in mind, we have a short links roundup today.

A quick note: the final embed of today’s links post contains minor spoilers for the finale of Stranger Things, so if you want to avoid those, stop scrolling after the second embed!
Some fun baseball-themed moments from the Stranger Things finale (scroll back now if you don’t want any minor spoilers!)
And tomorrow will be a better day than today, Buster. Make it so.
