This is the time of year where we get the time-honored verbs of the baseball lexicon.
“Showing strong interest”
These are the types of things we have come to learn, love and study with reckless abandon. If the are showing interest in someone, how does that player fit on the roster? How does that player affect not only the team’s 2024 plans, but also the 2025 season and beyond?
To speak nothing of the financials, something you nor I should be concerned with anyway. With the offseason just beginning to grind its wheels toward a start, now is when teams are “intrigued” with someone, or a player is “interested in joining” another team.
