It’s now been nearly three weeks since general manager Jerry Dipoto made his last trade. On December 7, on the second-to-last day of the Major League Baseball winter meetings, Dipoto acquired right-handed starting pitcher Chris Heston from the Giants for a player to be named later.
Since then, Dipoto has been unusually quiet on the transaction front.
It’s easy to imagine him pacing in his office at Safeco Field, speed dialing and texting every general manager around the league every hour on the hour.
