Good morning, Camden Chatters.
We were told the MLB offseason was going to be absolutely bonkers once the lockout ended. And in the four full days that the league has been back in business since the new CBA was signed, that frenzied spree of player moves has lived up to the hype.
We’ve seen a few big-name free agents come off the board, including Clayton Kershaw returning to the Dodgers and Carlos Rodon joining the Giants. We’ve seen trade after trade go down, with the Reds selling off every player of value — including Jesse Winker and Eugenio Suarez to the Mariners yesterday — and the Twins pull off a madcap flurry of acquisitions and sell-offs, dispatching Isiah Kiner-Falefa (whom they’d just acquired the previous day) and Josh Donaldson to serve as the Yankees’ new left side of the infield.
