Good morning.
It is Saturday, March 12, 2022, and the lockout is still over.
Hurrah.
Opening Day for the Texas Rangers is 27 days away. A skosh under four weeks.
That’s pretty soon.
We lost three months of offseason activity due to the lockout, and while there were a number of big moves in the run up to the lockout, nothing like the normal amount of signings and deals we would have over the course of a full offseason happened. And with less than a month to go before the season starts, both teams and players are going to want to move quickly to get deals done before too much time passes.
