Dodgers more dependent on Kershaw for success than ever
Clayton Kershaw will start on Opening Day for the eighth straight year. He will become the first Dodger to notch that mark, surpassing Don Drysdale and Don Sutton. There is only one active streak longer than Kershaw’s, which belongs to the Mariners’ ace, Felix Hernandez.

Legion of Boom era ends in Seattle, Seahawks now set to rebuild
For the past five years, Seattle Seahawks’ Legion of Boom has been one of the stand-out defensive cores within the NFL. An aggressive, talented and stellar defensive line grew together, learnt together, failed together and, finally, won together. In 2013, the Seahawks saw their playoff run end prematurely after conceding a last minute field goal

How Moustakas’ free agency ended back in Kansas City
It took until early March for Mike Moustakas to sign for a team. The power-hitting third baseman secured a deal before plenty of other stars, but his $6.5 million for 2018 is far short of what evaluators expected him to receive.

Darvish’s career trend is a warning sign for Cubs
Yu Darvish’s free agency was dominated by talk of his World Series nightmares. Baseball relies on large sample sizes, and that dictates that two dire starts – even on the biggest stage of all – should be treated with no more concern than a poor two-innings in April. The Fall Classic mishaps are a distraction

Myers’ presence raises Hosmer questions
Eric Hosmer got the biggest contract of this slow-moving offseason. His eight-year, $144 million deal is far clear of what other star free agents received, such as JD Martinez, Lorenzo Cain and Yu Darvish. Given how much talk of ‘tanking’ there has been since the 2017 MLB season ended at Dodger Stadium, it was perhaps
