Carlos Rodón to the Giants, as free agency begins

In case you missed the news, baseball is back! As of 6 p.m. on March 10, the agreement between MLB and MLBPA had been ratified, and free agency was on.

Nearly 24 hours later, there was finally some movement. Alas, it was Carlos Rodón signing a two-year deal with the San Fransisco Giants.

Rodón will earn $44 million, which includes an opt-out after the first season. Yep, pretty much the qualifying offer that the White Sox passed on last year.

Let's break down some of the memorable moments, both good and bad.

Rodón was drafted in the first round, third overall by the White Sox in the 2014 draft.
