Obviously, after Saturday’s news that basically no progress was accomplished to end the MLB Lockout despite a “good-faith” offer from the owners, any potential baseball signings or trade activity are still indefinitely delayed. However, that does not mean a bit of speculation cannot lead to interesting conversation.
For instance, the Braves may be looking to add more position player options to their roster beyond Freddie Freeman once the offseason resumes. A key area they could add to is the outfield. While options are available via free agency, Marc Topkin discussed that the Rays could be open to moving outfielders.
