Hello and happy Tuesday.
Winter Meetings are underway for the San Francisco Giants, and the other 29 MLB teams for that matter. They’re different this year, for obvious reasons, and they’re being held virtually.
Presumably the Giants will do something. They’ve been rumored to be interested in numerous trades, and linked to many a free agent. It’s unclear whether they’ll do tiny moves, swing for the fences, or find a middle ground.
Either way, something is bound to happen today, or tomorrow, or the next day, or next week, or something. I think we’re all waiting to see what the first domino will be, and when it will fall.
