The 2009 MLB winter meetings have been probably the most active big name deals in years. Pitching is at the top of everyone’s Christmas lists, and teams are giving up bats to get the arms they want. Let’s look at some trades and “almost done deals” as of Monday afternoon:

We’ll keep you updated as trades and rumors spill out of the winter meetings. The Angels look like they’re dismantling their band of playoff losers, and Seattle looks like they want to make an immediate run at the World Series by picking up everything but the kitchen sink on the market. The Indians haven’t given up anyone during the winter meetings because they have nobody left to give up.

Stay Tuned.
