The Passans: Best, Worst ABS Challenge among unique MLB awards (opens the original)
Read excerpt
While Major League Baseball’s awards season doesn’t officially arrive until November, that’s no reason to wait to pay homage to the best of 2026. These aren’t your typical honors, but seeing as how the Baseball Writers’ Association of America now hands out 10 awards a year -- MVP, Cy Young, Rookie of the Year, Manager of the Year and the new Reliever of the Year in each league -- here are 10 others to accompany those.

Read excerpt
THE CALLS WENT out Saturday afternoon, earlier than anticipated. The Detroit Tigers were ready to trade the best pitcher in the world, and they needed best-and-final offers from the teams still involved in the biggest baseball sweepstakes of the summer.
