MLB Winter Meetings set for busy trade activity as Juan Soto's free agency looms

The MLB Winter Meetings in Dallas are expected to bring significant activity, particularly around Juan Soto's free agency. His potential record-breaking contract could influence the market for many other players. Soto is anticipated to sign before the meetings conclude next Thursday, possibly even before they start. This could create a busy environment for general managers, including the Braves' Alex Anthopoulos. The Braves are looking to improve their roster, focusing on the rotation and outfield, while also considering upgrades at shortstop and adding depth to the bullpen.
