As we all know, the owner-imposed lockout prevents any significant player movement around the league, as 40-man rosters cannot be changed until the lockout is lifted. That prevents almost all player movement in the offseason, but not literally all of it. Teams can still sign players to minor-league deals, which is something we see a lot of this time of year anyway with players grabbing what basically amount to audition roster spots signing minor-league deals with invitations to major-league spring training. The Boston Red Sox have signed a few of those this winter, and over the weekend added another one.
