Free Agent Tracker
The off-season is here and the Hot Stove is heating up. The 2012 MLB Winter Meetings take place in Nashville, TN this year. The free agent class being discussed is not as spectacular as we have seen in years past. It is however headlined by a former MVP and a former Cy Young Award winner.
There are many players simmering on the Hot Stove; Sports Talk Florida will have all the latest moves on our Free Agent Tracker.
