Soon, Major League Baseball will descend on Nashville, Tennessee Sunday for the start of the annual Winter Meetings. If you are unfamiliar, the four-day meetings are a staple of baseball’s offseason. It is a gathering of Front Office executives, agents and sometimes even players, with face-to-face meetings that shape the offseason. The meetings will also include the Contemporary Era ballot results for the Hall of Fame, the annual Draft Lottery, and the Rule 5 Draft.
Baseball’s offseason has gotten off to its new normal: a slow start. Still, we’ve had a bit of activity to close out the fall.
