January 5: Zack Britton moves from the Bronx to Queens as he signs a 2/7.3 deal with the Mets.

January 8: The Yankees sent pitcher Michael King to the Padres for catcher Austin Nola, as they needed a catcher with Gary Sanchez a free agent. King pitched well for New York with a 3.42 ERA in 152 innings.

January 9: SP Joe Musgrove went for 3/21.2 to the Phillies.

January 11: Veteran reliever Craig Kimbrel signed with the Twins for 1/2.7 while starter Robbie Ray joined the Astros for 3/40.8.

January 12: The Reds dealt OF Jesse Winker to Texas for 3 middling prospects.

January 14: Signed 1B/OF Joey Gallo to a minor league contract.

Gallo had 24 HR and 65 RBI last year, but it came with a .181 average and negative WAR so this isn't the coup it might appear to someone reading this in July 2021. Still he'll give us some depth at Durham.

January 18: The Hall of Fame voting results are in, and there won't be any inductions at Cooperstown this year. First-year nominee Carlos Beltran came the closest at 65.7% but the next after him was Manny Ramirez at 41.3%.

January 28: Atlanta send a pair of minor leaguers to the Red Sox for 1B Bobby Dalbec.

February 1: The Blue Jays sent 5 minor leaguers to Oakland for SP A.J. Puk. Kenley Jansen, let go by the Dodgers, signed a 1-year, $2.36M deal with the Mets.

February 5: The Memphis Spirit sent a couple of prospects to Oakland for SP Frankie Montas while 3B Kyle Seager signed a 2/26 deal with the Cardinals.

February 6: Not sure what the Rockies were thinking but they sent SP Kyle Freeland and well-regarded OF prospect Zac Veen to the Marlins for 3 middling prospects.

February 7: Another curious deal where the Yankees sent #10 overall prospect Jasson Dominguez - and two other prospects - to Atlanta for 36-year-old reliever Chris Martin. I have the trading slider set to about 60-65% of the way over to "favor prospects", guess it's not far enough.

February 11: Manuel Margot signed a minor league deal with Seattle. I probably should have more attentive to this.

February 17: Signed SS Freddy Galvis to a minor league contract.

Our middle infield depth is pretty poor, with Tristan Gray, a corner guy, projected to start at SS for Durham so we went out a got a legit MI.

February 24: After rebuilding his value with a .290-32-106 season aided by Coors Field, Nomar Mazara signed a whopping 5/64.3 deal with San Diego.

March 9: The Phillies signed OF Michael Brantley to a 1-year, $3.8M deal, while Arizona signed former Ray Wil Myers to a 1/2.5 deal and slugger Miguel Sano had to settle for a minor league deal with the Marlins.

March 12: Marcus Semien signed a minor league deal with the Phillies and 2021 Ray Alex Wood signed a 2/30(!) deal with the Mets.

March 13: A couple of former Rays OFs found new homes on minor league deals: Kevin Kiermaier with the Marlins, and Yoshi Tsutsugo with Atlanta.

March 26: Our first significant injury of Spring Training: Vidal Brujan strained a hamstring and is out 7 weeks.

March 27: Wow. The Dodgers traded SS Corey Seager (they did sign Xander Bogaerts earlier this offseason) to the Memphis Spirit for Michael Chavis and a minor leaguer of no distinction. Memphis also signed former Rays 1B Jesus Aguilar to a 1/3.7 deal.

April 2: Max Muncy signed a 2/30.8 pact with Colorado, where I'm sure he'll hit plenty of homers.

April 4: Traded 33-year old RHP Andrew Kittredge and 26-year old 3B Kevin Padlo to the Los Angeles Dodgers, getting 25-year old RHP Landon Knack in return.

Kittredge and Padlo were out of options, so I had to deal or waive them, and I think I got a good return in Knack, LA's 2nd-round pick in 2020 who looks like a legit 4/5 starter in MLB.

April 5: Didi Gregorious signed a 1/8.1 deal with the Angels.
