For many fans, particularly in today’s internet-driven society, the baseball offseason can be almost as fun as the actual season. Nothing beats the real games, of course, but there is a very real amount of fun that comes from putting together your own offseason plan. You look at your favorite team’s current roster and play the next few months out in your head. What do you think they need? What would you be willing to give up in a trade? How much would you be willing to sign your target for? Since most of us know we don’t have the athletic ability to be a professional athlete, being a general manager is the next best thing, and this exercise allows us to play out that pipe dream.
