OFFSEASON TRANSACTION SUMMARY

December
* Just after the winter meetings, added Anderson Reynoso, Anderson Pilar, Andrew Schultz, and Colby White, all on minor league deals. First two are high-40s potential starters, latter are 50s-60s relievers who could be contributors as soon as this season (which says something about my squad)
* Mid-December, made two domestic FA deals, adding Kenya Wakatsuki to a minor-league deal with a major league option from Orix, and Yuta Takano from the BCL (50 contact, 60 DEF at RF, exactly my type of player)
* Sent Soichiro Tateoka to the Swallows for Anthony Guardado - needed to shed some payroll stuck in the minors.
* Sent Kyohei Nagae to the Buffaloes for Chris Rusin - same idea.
* Sent Issei Endo back to the Dragons whom I drafted him from to save further dosh, getting Ryosuke Kishisato back
* Purchased Fidel Mejia, a Dominican shortstop from the Saitama Musashi Heat Bears for 250K. He'll be handling primary duties in the infield because Masaki Mimori's a bit too young.

January
* Signed more minor-league depth, Seiya Dohi (LHP), Hiroyuki Shirasaki (3B), Kiyoharu Sawano (SS).
* Made another major league deal, adding 34-year-old Ryoichi Adachi to be our main shortstop at 1yr/240K. Mejia's still got room to grow, so Adachi's likely just a stopgap, especially since he only was worth 0.6 WAR last year with Orix.

February
* Signed Wander Cabrera as another Dominican starter prospect. I gotta hit on one of these guys, right?
* One final major-league deal, signing Connor Greene to 1yr/350K to likely be our staff ace. Greene left the Royals in 2020, spent a year in the Giants AA/AAA teams, and now has a chance to prove his mettle.
