Happy Friday, Athletics Nation! Hope you had a safe and happy Halloween.
The 2024 MLB season is officially over. Walker Buehler pitched the final inning of the World Series on Wednesday, earning his first career save in the process. Yesterday, he and other eligible players like Juan Soto and Alex Bregman became free agents.
Offseason activities will now begin in earnest. Gold Glove awards will be announced on Sunday, and this year’s general managers meetings begin on Tuesday. Trades have resumed. Options are being exercised.
