Tempest, Kingfishers Trade Players
Tuesday, December 1st, 2026
It likely won't turn either team into an instant contender or provide a huge franchise shakeup, but the New Haven Tempest and Corpus Christi Kingfishers finalized a trade today. New Haven will send 21-year-old minor league SS Mike Fowler, 22-year-old minor league RF Lao-sheng Chen, 24-year-old minor league 3B Mark Dinga and a 6th round draft pick to the Kingfishers, while the Tempest will receive 24-year-old 3B Danny Ziebarth.
"We think this is a deal that will help out both teams and we're glad to get it done," the Tempest general manager said.
The trade is expected to be officially completed later today with the players joining their new ballclubs by the end of the day.

FBL News: Free Agents File
Tuesday, December 1st, 2026
The opening day of FBL free agency arrives today with a flurry of activity as players file their paperwork to become free agents.
For the next several months, players and their prospective suitors will be locked in fierce negotiations. Deals will come together, fall apart and be resurrected again. Teams will fight to meet their needs while staying within their budget. Throughout the process, there will be second-guessing from fans and media alike. Even players who remain under contract will keep an eye on things, curious as to who will be sharing their locker room in the coming season and whether that bodes well or ill for their own careers.
Months from now, when the free agency period has settled down, fans will finally get a glimpse at the latest version of their team.
A number of quality players have filed for free agency and could generate a lot of interest. Most notable among them are:
Erik Betances, 30 year-old RH SP
Dennis Anderson, 37 year-old SS
Seth Berry, 32 year-old RH SP
