Well, folks, I did you wrong by suggesting we might see something exciting go down this week during virtual Winter Meetings, but alas, it seems the Zoom was more of a Fizzle as far as it went with signing free agents. We saw the Rays trade a Lowe to the Rangers, but it was not MVP-candidate Brandon Lowe, but rather Nate Lowe. Lance Lynn was traded to the White Sox, which has the internet ablaze on the team’s behalf, but aside from that (and lots of rumors) there were no superstar moves to be see.
The Rule 5 Draft on Thursday concluded the week’s events, and leaves us all wondering just when something, anything might start to happen on the free agent market.
