Hey there, everybody. Apologies for the late post, but the day job hasn’t been cooperating this week.
The offseason will not officially begin for a couple weeks still; not until the World Series comes to an end will clubs be free to begin pursuing their team-building plans. There are reasons, obviously; preventing both head starts by clubs not busy with the whole postseason thing and thunder-stealing on an epic scale by teams wheeling and dealing during MLB’s greatest showcase are the two primaries.
However, the offseason being required to hold off on its official starting bell for a little while longer doesn’t mean we are entirely without news, even official news.
