Having already executed the biggest move they’re likely to make in the off-season, it figures to be a quiet few days for the A’s at this year’s Major League Baseball Winter Meetings in Orlando, Fla.
That development would not be terribly unusual. In six of the last 10 years, the A’s haven’t made a single transaction at the meetings, including last year when their roster was a lot more unsettled than it is now.
Moreover, the A’s biggest off-season deal may have taken place on Nov. 15, when they traded power-hitting infielder/designated hitter Ryon Healy to the Seattle Mariners on for right-handed relief pitcher Emilio Pagan and shortstop prospect Alexander Campos.
