MLB trade rumors are going to start swirling this week with the winter meetings kicking off today in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.
As you know by now, there have already been some huge moves out there: Mariano Rivera and Derek Jeter re-signed with the New York Yankees. Adam Dunn joined the White Sox for big dollars. And Jayson Werth just got an enormous contract from the Washington Nationals.
But Adrian Gonzalez being dealt to the Red Sox is probably the most momentous of all the offseason moves in 2010-2011. Gonzalez will take up residence in Fenway Park next spring.
That has us wondering how the other teams in MLB are going to compete in 2011. What moves might be out there to match the Gonzalez-to-Boston deal?
Inside we’ll choose one move each team might make, from least impactful across the league to most impactful, with a guess at how possible each move is.
