Major League Baseball is open for business at the GM Meetings in Carlsbad, Calif.
All eyes are on free agent sluggers Bryce Harper and Manny Machado, both of whom could receive 10-year contracts worth more than $300 million.
Several deep-pocketed teams, including the Yankees, are expected to talk to representatives for both players.
General manager Brian Cashman will also scour the pitching market for help in the starting rotation.
Owner Hal Steinbrenner had been adamant that Cashman get the payroll under the luxury tax threshold in 2018.
