Why these winter meetings are as much as about 2020 for Rangers as they are next season

As long as baseball insists on holding its winter meetings and they can’t be in San Diego, Las Vegas isn’t a bad alternative.

The Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino will play host to the annual rumor mill, where for parts of five days club officials meet with themselves, meet with agents, occasionally meet with other club officials and then do most of their business via text.

Those club officials do their best to avoid being seen by reporters, and then do their best to not show their hand during designated media sessions. They have teams to build and don’t like any informed reports getting out.
