Lemers

now that the world series is over teams only have five days to sign their freeagents or risk losing them to other teams. This was shortened from the 15 days through the collective bargining agreement. Below is a list of potential Free Agents for 2011 either through contracts expiring or six years allowing them to declear free agency. So I'm hoping this thread to becomea discussion of baseball's offseason season.
