Good morning.

Jamey Newberg writes that there will be roster shuffling this week with Rule 5 protection to consider as he looks back at how Jon Daniels has handled these decisions in the past.

The folks at ESPN have an offseason preview for how things might play out in the American League West.

Evan Grant’s Rangers positional analysis continues with a look at the starting rotation where Minor Minor and Lance Lynn were a dynamic duo but question marks abound behind them.

Will Leitch designates a bounce-back candidate for each team with Rougned Odor perpetually on that trampoline in Texas.

Have a nice day!
