Fast Forwarding Through the Lockout: AL East Edition

Jan 27, 2022

DVR, Britt & Eno take a team-by-team look at the five clubs in the AL East in an attempt to sort out what the rest of the offseason will look like once the lockout is over. 


Do the Rays have another move -- possibly a trade -- on the horizon to open up more playing time for their next wave of young talent?


Will the Red Sox pursue a more impactful free agent if the Competitive Balance Tax threshold is significantly increased?


Are the Yankees a lock to find an upgrade a shortstop?


Can the Jays find one more big piece to upgrade their infield via trade or free agency?


And, as the slow rebuild continues in Baltimore, will the Orioles allow their MLB-ready prospects to maximize their development time with the big club this season?
