The Los Angeles Angels, once again in need of a starting pitcher to slot near the top of their rotation, have agreed to a three-year contract with Tyler Anderson, sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan.

The deal, valued somewhere in the neighborhood of $39 million, was struck hours before Tuesday's deadline for players to decide whether to accept the qualifying offer. Anderson was given the one-year, $19.65 million qualifying offer by the crosstown Los Angeles Dodgers but instead opted for a multiyear agreement.

The Angels will now lose their second-round pick and the Dodgers will gain a pick after the fourth round in next year's draft.

I'd like a losses column there.  Managers used to routinely leave a guy in, down 2-0, and let him go 9.

I'm guessing, as a group, they're well over 500

you are correct that if the manager thought the game was out of reach(probably more than 2 runs) why tire the bullpen.

But, if the game truly was out of reach, the starter is gonna take the loss anyway

On November 29, 1966 — A circuit court jury in Chicago, IL awards Jim Brewer $25,000 in damages stemming from his 1960 on-field fight with Billy Martin. The case went to a jury trial, which did not buy Martin’s argument that when a pitcher walks off the mound toward a batter it means that he wants to fight. Brewer was awarded $25,000 but the amount was later cut in half. Martin got the money from an acquaintance in Minneapolis and spent several years paying it off.

Draft lottery was kind to the Pirates, Tigers, and Twins.  Not so much the Reds or As

The Mets' payroll + luxury tax = the combined payrolls of the A's, Brewers, Gurdians, Mrlins, Nats, Orioles, Pirates, Rays, Reds, Royals, and Twins.
.
In a sport where the postseason is 3 coinflips.
