We begin our countdown of the nation’s Top 85 pitching transfers with an in-depth look at arms in the 76-85 range — headlined by TCU addition and righthanded pitcher Trey Newmann. Let’s…
There are just three days left of the summer transfer window, and Liverpool are still the only club not to make a significant addition to their ranks.Though a deal for Giorgi Mamardashvili has been agreed, he will remain at Valencia until the 2025/26 season, meaning that the squad that Arne Slot has ostensibly remains the same as the one he inherited, a departure or two notwithstanding.With supporters of every club appearing to demand that signings are made in each and every window, the lack of investment from FSG would seem to be a worry for the Anfield faithful.Liverpool might not…
