I feel bad for Greg Amsinger and the MLBN guys that need to spend another full day talking about absolutely nothing. 

I think they're happy to spend all day talking about the Yankees signing Happ. They probably loathe talking about the White Sox. Royals, Tigers, Indians, A's Rockies, Diamondbacks, Padres, I rarely see any of their shows without the lead story being East Coast -centric. Rosenthal and Dan O'Dowd are the only ones with any perspective.

This is what has happened at the winter meetings this year:

Sox trade for Nova

Phillies sign McCutchen

Rays sign Morton

Yankees possibly re-sign JA Happ

That's it. 

I'm not sure it should be a thing anymore. 

You forgot we signed GOINS!

Happ deal isn’t even done yet.

I've heard execs from 2 teams say this week that Craig Kimbrel is looking for a deal north of $100 million for 6 years. He's one of the greatest closers of all time. But is there a record deal out there for him? Hard to say in a bullpen market that has barely moved.

These winter meetings didn't live up to the hype. What does baseball need to do to have a 2-3 week sprint where most of the significant moves take place vs. being spread out over 3 months? Maybe it's fine to be 3 months and we're all impatient, but compared to the NFL / NBA, this seems to be boring as all hell.

thoughts?
