MLB Hot Stove League 2013-2014
Red Sox made qualifying offers to Ellsbury, Drew and Napoli. I am guessing that Napoli signs and they ink that three year deal they were going to do before this past season. Ellsbury is gone. "Experts" have him going to either Mariners/Cubs/Rangers (seems to be split) and Drew may re-sign, depending on the offers he gets. He's a Boras client so there's probably more smoke than actual fire in his case (not the biggest hitter). If Drew and Nap come back then that gives Xander time to play both third with Middlebrooks and short with Drew and have a 3-man platoon on the left side of the infield.
Not sure why they didn't make a qualifying offer to Salty.
Hudson returns to the Bay
Tim Hudson agreed to a 2 year $23 million deal with the Giants. Seems like a lot of money to me but what do I know.
What will the Braves rotation look like without Hud? Will they try to sign someone or fill from within?
