With the recent news of Thairo Estrada set to miss four to eight weeks due to a broken wrist, the landscape of the MLB is shifting once again. This injury raises some intriguing questions about the depth and resilience of the San Francisco Giants. How will they adapt without one of their key players?

On another note, the Braves have been busy, signing Alex Verdugo and selecting promising talents like Drake Baldwin and Hector Neris. With these moves, are the Braves positioning themselves as serious contenders for the postseason? What do you think about their strategy of bolstering their roster with both established players and fresh talent?

And let’s not overlook the Blue Jays’ bold statement regarding Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and potential contract extension talks. If they do extend him, what kind of impact will that have on the team’s future? Is Guerrero Jr. worth the hefty price tag that’s being speculated, or should the Blue Jays consider other options?

Lastly, the Mets have signed Billy McKinney to a minor league deal. Given his inconsistent performance in the majors, do you think he can finally find his footing and make a significant impact? Or is he destined to remain a journeyman in the league?

Let’s dive into these topics! What are your thoughts on these developments? What bold predictions do you have for the teams involved?
