Early every December, executives from all 30 MLB clubs, along with free agents and potential trade candidates, all meet in one place. The execs chat with prospective players and other front office officials to lay the groundwork for signings and trades, and maybe even finish off some deals.
This year's Winter Meetings will run from December 7-10 in Orlando, Florida. The Boston Red Sox were one of the most active teams at last year's Winter Meetings, as Craig Breslow traded for Garrett Crochet and Carlos Narváez at the event. He could make some more trades this time to address one or more of the Sox's pressing needs.
