CI Week brought active bidding with all 30 teams involved, a relative rarity. The Yankees had a big day. Yanks happy to bring home the most popular free agent Justin Bour and rounded off their corners with Chase Headley. The biggest contract of the day was Red Sox looking for versatile pop in the form of Jedd Gyorko. Red Sox also signed Adrian Beltre to a surprise 1YR/18.4 deal. As they say, there is no such thing as a bad one-year deal. AL East brought home the biggest free agents this class.
Surely the Brewers are satisfied this week while bringing home two CIs for under $13M, highlighted by Yonder Alonso. The Braves stayed up to 3 AM to get overjoyed at adding Hernan Perez and Adam Lind. Perez got a healthy one-year pact and will play all over the field. Orioles try to keep pace by adding Matt Adams, who can man the corner infield (sorta) and corner outfield (technically). Rebuilding teams swept the third tier free agents.
