David, James and Justin discuss whether any big business could take place this week as teams prepare for the Winter Meetings. David thinks we should focus more on potential trades over the next several days rather than free agent signings. The crew discusses the White Sox signing of Mike Clevinger, and how that could end up being a steal for Chicago. As far as the starting pitchers at the top of the free agent class go, the hosts wonder whether Carlos Rodon signs before Justin Verlander and Jacob deGrom. The crew is split over whether they’d rather have Verlander or deGrom if money wasn’t an issue. They also discuss how the shortstop market is tied directly to Aaron Judge.
