The Los Angeles Dodgers are 2024 World Series champions. The New York Yankees? Their title drought, dating back to 2009, continues. After falling in the Fall Classic, the Yankees joined the New York Mets, the Cleveland Guardians, the Detroit Tigers, San Diego Padres, Kansas City Royals, Philadelphia Phillies, Atlanta Braves, Baltimore Orioles, Houston Astros and Milwaukee Brewers as the teams whose once-promising postseasons didn't end in a parade. Whether your team's playoff departure came in the opening days or after a long(er) run, let's look ahead to what could be on the front office's to-do list heading into the offseason. ESPN MLB reporters Alden Gonzalez, Bradford Doolittle and David Schoenfield identify the free agents to watch, key priorities and a question that will shape the coming months for each eliminated squad. Did your favorite team miss the postseason altogether? We dove into what went wrong for each non-playoff team -- and how to fix it.
