NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- After three days of visiting with other teams and agents to discuss different trade deals and possible signings, the Rays continued to stand pat Wednesday.
That stance prompted Matt Silverman to note: "One of our rules is there's no magic to the Winter Meetings and the timing of the meetings."
The Rays' president of baseball operations said they feel no pressure to get a deal done while at the Winter Meetings.
"We certainly have conversations," Silverman said. "We certainly exchange ideas. I'm not saying that other teams are cavalier, but we're very deliberate in our process, and especially if we're considering larger deals.
