Four things we learned from the MLB winter meetings

OXON HILL, Md. - Another annual round of winter meetings is done and once again the casualties mount. A host of baseball reporters are being treated for painful “Twitter thumb” and Post Rule 5 Draft Disorder.

The business of baseball, however, moves on.

As the meetings go, they were full of rumors (or you could use another term) but, as usual, the actual action was a bit less frenzied. There was not a single $100 million contract handed out. There was only one knee-buckling trade. And the Rangers stayed mostly in the background, doing what they absolutely needed to do - re-sign Carlos Gomez - and nothing more.
