The rumor mill seems to be in full effect already — Adam Dunn, Ken Griffey, Todd Helton, Mark Buerhle and more have already seen their name in pixels, aimed at a new team. Still, there’s not MUCH going on … yet. So are you smarter than your average GM? Do you have a trade offer that you KNOW makes sense for both teams?
A couple years ago, we put together a “Mock Winter Meetings” which was a very curious but fun exercise. This won’t be quite that — instead, simply email your best offer to mkleine@baseballprospectus.com. The BP staff will go through them and we’ll print the best ones, with one lucky winner getting a prize I think they’ll like. (It’s not a picture of Bud Selig.)
So, start your rumors. Make them realistic and win-win. Who knows? Maybe Jim Bowden is looking for ideas …
