Part 2/8:
One of the most talked-about moves involved Corbin Burns, who signed a six-year contract worth $210 million with the Arizona Diamondbacks. This signing raised eyebrows, not just for the figure but also for the rarity, as there were no prior rumors linking Burns to Arizona. The contract is a considerable financial commitment, reminiscent of other recent deals where teams may have had to evaluate not only the player's performance metrics but also tax implications associated with different markets.
Other notable signings include:
Carlos Santana returning to the Cleveland Guardians, creating a familiar presence for their roster.
Glaber Torres moving to the Detroit Tigers on a one-year deal, offering potential as a strong top-of-the-line-up player despite defensive concerns.
