Things change, and things change quickly. Often for the better; often for the worse.
MLB’s Winter Meetings are a thing that changed. Read my Monday morning article on the start of the meetings, and you might have expected a few billion dollars to have been committed to players today, and for the San Francisco Giants to have already altered their roster. Instead, the biggest Monday news seems to be that Erick Fedde has a mystery team offering him more than $5 million per year. This quietness comes in addition to — or, more accurately, as a result of — rumors/reports/speculation that the two biggest free agents, Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, are now expected to sign sometime after the meetings conclude on Wednesday.
