As I write this things on the free agent market are starting to move a little bit, at least relative to what we had been seeing for most of the free agency period this winter. Things have been getting progressively slower the past few years, and the financial uncertainty caused by the pandemic has only worked to speed up that slowing down. It also doesn’t help that there are no clear guidelines on what some rules, such as roster size and DH in the National League, will end up being.
And so I used this slow-paced offseason to influence the staff roundtable question for the week.
