How MLB The Show 22 thinks the Mariners will do this year

The Houston Astros enter the 2023 season as the reigning World Series champions. Could these three moves help ensure the Astros earn a repeat title?. Stacked with what has been ranked as the top lineup among all MLB teams entering the 2023 campaign, the Houston Astros are in an excellent position to return to the Fall Classic.

The Chicago Cubs have a potential conflict of interest with Game 7 of the World Series. Is that a message to the fanbase?. Chicago made several high-profile moves this offseason — namely signing Dansby Swanson and Jameson Taillon, among others — but is it fair to expect a World Series appearance in 2023?

Trading for catcher Sean Murphy was the big splash for the Atlanta Braves this offseason, but is the club already making a huge mistake with the newcomer?. Landing Sean Murphy this offseason was not a mistake for the Atlanta Braves. Far from it, actually. While the club did have to part with Williams Contreras, among others, Atlanta brought in one of the best all-around catchers in baseball and then locked him up to a trademark Alex Anthopoulous extension that makes him part of the team’s young core.

The Giants, who have already signed Mitch Haniger and Michael Conforto, have agreed to sign a third veteran outfielder, sources say. Outfielder Stephen Piscotty and the San Francisco Giants are in agreement on a minor-league contract that includes an invite to spring training, according to a source familiar with the deal. The deal pays Piscotty $1 million if he’s in the majors.
