Getting Blanked was the place you wanted to be this morning at 11 AM ET, as we went live with our post-Winter Meetings Getting Blanked Hangout on Google+, Ben Nicholson-Smith of MLB Trade Rumors (@MLBTRBen) and Jonah Keri of Grantland (@JonahKeri), who, along with Drew Fairservice and yours truly, recapped all the big happenings from the Winter Meetings.
Here’s the replay:

They also lost Mark Sobolewski.
I don’t expect any of these guys will never do anything beyond filling out minor league rosters, but hey, at least it’s something to look over in a slow Winter Meetings.
It wouldn’t fit with what Anthopoulos said about nothing happening at this time, but I wonder if the Jays would try to get involved in this trade scenario involving the D’Backs, Rays and Rangers.
