* Let the (winter) games begin

December 8, 2008

It’s quite appropriate that baseball’s winter meetings are held around the holidays. If your team’s front office guys are good, you can get a swell present of a 40-home run slugger or Cy Young-caliber pitcher.

Or you can get a lump of coal.

It’s way too early to report on anything major, so in the meantime, check out Josh Lewin’s behind-the- scenes look at what goes on at these things in Getting in the Game: Inside Baseball’s Winter Meetings (Potomac Books, 2005).

You can keep track over the four-day event here.
