The Buckeyes' place in the postseason became a question Tuesday when Michigan canceled the teams' regular-season rivalry game because of COVID-19 issues within the Wolverines program.

Allen's No. 15 was retired by the Phillies in September, an honor that was considered long overdue by many for one of the franchise's greatest players who fought against racism during a tumultuous period with the team in the 1960s.

Which team, in which year, made the all-time biggest winter meetings splash -- and how did it end up working out?
Schoenfield: Let's look at what Whitey Herzog did for the St. Louis Cardinals at the 1980 winter meetings. The Cardinals had been stuck in neutral for more than a decade and finished 74-88 in 1980. Hired as the club's GM in August, Herzog made himself the manager as well, then set out to remake the club. He signed Darrell Porter as a free agent, then made three big trades involving 23 players, trading away 12. He acquired two future Hall of Fame relievers (Bruce Sutter, Rollie Fingers) and then traded away Fingers and another Hall of Famer, Ted Simmons. The deals involved four All-Star catchers (Porter, Simmons, Gene Tenace, Terry Kennedy). He traded away a future Cy Young winner (Pete Vuckovich). In all, 11 of the 23 players accumulated at least 10 career WAR and most were still in their primes or early in their careers at the time. And that wasn't all. The following offseason, Herzog used two of the players acquired in 1980 (Sixto Lezcano and Lary Sorensen) to help acquire Ozzie Smith and Lonnie Smith. The Cardinals had the best record in the NL East in 1981 and won the World Series in 1982 -- and basically have been good ever since.

After that, even fellow newcomer Shogo Akiyama wasn’t being slotted for just one regular outfield spot.
He often plays first base with the Japanese national team due to the presence of defensive dynamo Ryosuke Kikuchi.Kikuchi is a spectacular defensive second baseman. He'll be posted this offseason.Kikuchi has won every Golden Glove at second base in the Central League since 2013. ""The fact that they've never had a Japanese player was something that was very attractive, and their presentation was impressive," said Akiyama, 31, through translator Roger Kahlon.

He's added some more power to his game in recent years, posting home run totals of 25, 24 and 20 over the past three seasons.Yamaguchi got hitters to swing at more of his stuff outside the strike zone this season. He'll also mix in a changeup, cutter and curve.Tsutsugo struck out 141 times in 2019, though that total is an outlier compared to the rest of his career.He will be entering his ninth top-team season in 2020 and could be on the radar as a possible posting candidate if he wants to move to MLB. There is a slight chance he could wind up in MLB earlier. He took Kirby Yates and Erasmo Ramirez deep during the MLB-Japan All-Star Series at Tokyo Dome in 2019.Before he allowed 20 home runs this season, he'd never given up more than 14.Seventeen members of the Marlins have tested positive for COVID-19 since Miami’s season opener five days ago, including 15 players.The difference between those two, in particular, is that Kikuchi wouldn't be moving across second base in the majors and he's already been working his magic on grass at Mazda Stadium in Hiroshima.His fastball sat around 90 mph in 2019, which was a slight improvement after the pitched averaged around 89 mph for a few seasons.

According to high-ranking executives from other teams, the Phillies communicated to others in the business that they are facing tough financial decisions and are open to offers for Wheeler, their second-most expensive player.Chicago White Sox Face Coverings

Rogers: It doesn't sound like a big deal now, but when the Yankees inked Winfield to that 10-year contract in 1980, it shocked the sports world. The concept of free agency was still in its infancy and players simply weren't getting mammoth deals back then -- though it was worth only $23 million. Winfield was fine for them, but the Yankees didn't win anything during his tenure in New York.

Dennis Millard saw that side of Allen, too. Millard, a Philadelphia native, was a 13-year-old kid who had fallen in with a bad crowd when he first wandered into Connie Mack Stadium and watched Allen take batting practice before a game. He was awed by the then-rookie — even more so when, not long afterward, Allen noticed the teen was short on cash at a food cart and stepped up to pay for his hot dog and soda.New York Mets Face Coverings
