In 2022, Freddie Freeman quietly donated half a million dollars to his Orange County high school to improve its baseball facilities. When the OC Register reported it, he told me the next day "I was trying to keep it a secret."
The giving keep giving:
Dodgers' Freddie Freeman, wife pledge massive donation in response to Southern California fires
Los Angeles Dodgers star Freddie Freeman and his wife, Chelsea, are donating $300,000 — $100,000 each to the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation, the Pasaden

Appears to be a mass glitch situation, not a scam. Topps recently partnered with Smile dot io so they’re legit
PSA for #cardsky folks: if you received an email from “Topps” this morning about an order being canceled or earning points for an order you don’t remember, don’t click any links in the email as the address isn’t from Topps. If you’re unsure go to the website from your browser to check orders/rewards

In the criminal case against Ohtani's translator, you may remember that the government seized bunches of trading cards and wanted to know what to do with them. Basically.

Well, yesterday, Ohtani filed a doc saying those cards are basically his and he wants them.

Yusei Kikuchi to the Angels. $63M, 3 years.
Angels are back in the ballgame: about $100M spent (Soler/d’Arnaud/Hendricks/Newman) early MLB spending lead.
Kikuchi’s $21M salary could boost pitching comps: Manaea also Severino, Flaherty, Eovaldi, Pivetta & Buehler (Snell, Burnes & Fried will be more)

only season where both MVPs had already won one previously (since BBWAA began voting in 1931):

1955 Yogi Berra, Roy Campanella (3rd for each)
