The Winter Meetings are next week, and that is the tentpole event of Major League Baseball's offseason. It was at the Winter Meetings last year when the Chicago Cubs set the parameters for their trade for Kyle Tucker, and the trade market will likely be the preferred direction the team travels once again at baseball's gathering of all the important people.
Even a week before the event, it's hard to say specifically who Jed Hoyer and Co. will target. It wasn't until the end of last year's Winter Meetings that it became clear that not only were the Houston Astros going to trade Tucker, but that the Cubs were the most aggressive suitor.
