General Manager Matt Klentak’s week in Scottsdale, AZ is over, having spent a week talking to other GMs, player agents and other big league executives regarding a number of off-season topics at the GM Meetings. One would assume the groundwork was laid for future free agent signings and trades that will take place over the next few months.
Make no mistake, the off-season is probably going to be long once again, and the Phillies will be in the middle of it. There are going to be rumors left and right, many of them contradictory, and we’ll parse though every one of them until we’re blue in the face.
