In Episode 513, Jeffrey and Craig chat about Christmas music and then discuss five mostly baseball topics.
1. Because We Are Not a Mets Podcast: There were three big free agent signings at the Winter Meetings, and none of them were by the Mets
2. There Is No Such Thing as a Free Agency: And there were a lot of other deals to talk about briefly.
3. Jeff Kent, Hall of Famer: Sure, why not?
4. Around the Horn: A couple of trades, a draft lottery, and a Rule 5 draft update, sort of.
5. Apparently Craig only struggles to compete against himself.
