The GM meetings start today. There are usually few deals announced at these meetings but the discussions set the scene for the winter meetings in three weeks. Right around now free agents start narrowing down their suitors and getting into their real options including dollars. Reportedly some free agents will show up at the meetings for some face to face meetings and to apply pressure on the GM's by taking a lot of meetings.
Look for all the usual baseball reporters to start delivery reports later today.
In other news this is the last week of the AFL. Salt River, the home of the Blue Jays, are one half game out of a playoff spot.
The Jays did make some news today, they signed Marcus Walden, Jon Diaz and Larry Broadway to minor league deals. Where will Diaz fit in? Will Goins be the shortstop in AAA with Diaz in the majors as backup? Will Goins be in the majors with Diaz playing short in AAA? Will Kevin Nolan get the AAA job? I guess it's early yet in the hot stove league.
