Who’s preparing to make a splash? Which teams are lurking on big trades? Which free agents might go off the board first? And how aggressive should we expect contenders — and pretenders — to be once the doors open in Orlando?

The Mets keep spending — and the bullpen keeps growing. Devin Williams signs with New York as the Mets prepare for a “Trumpets Reunion” with Edwin Díaz, while still exploring more bullpen upgrades. Adam Weinrib and Robert Murray break down the move, what it means for the Mets’ payroll, and who could challenge them for the top relief arms.

They also cover the Kyle Schwarber market, which could move before the Winter Meetings wrap, and the surprising teams rumored for Ketel Marte — the Red Sox, Rays, and Tigers. Plus: could the Twins actually trade Joe Ryan or Pablo López to cut costs?

With the rumor mill oddly quiet, we kick off your Winter Meetings trade primer: five prospects most likely to headline packages—Spencer Jones (Yankees), Cam Caminiti (Braves), Enrique Bradfield Jr. (Orioles), Jacob Melton (Astros), and a Red Sox OF from their surplus. We cover why meetings spark negotiations more than signings, how Boras timelines shape the week, Rule 5 watch, and realistic trade fits (Cabrera/Marlins, SP targets, catcher help).

Plus: quick Hall of Fame note and an Anthony Rendón contract postscript.
