Each of the 30 FanSided MLB team sites are currently participating in a mock Winter Meetings simulation. Each team has a representative and is responsible for making trades, signing free agents and negotiating contract extensions. I, on behalf of Climbing Tal’s Hill, represented the Astros.
I’m going to provide recaps of the moves I make and discuss how they might compare to what happens in reality. Again, this is just a simulation, and the trade discussed below has not actually taken place, so please refrain from cries of “fake news.”
For me, the first order of business for the Astros was to trade Josh Reddick.
