Guess I won't be buzzin' the tower tomorrow.

It's been an interesting offseason for several high-level free agent baseball players.
Craig Kimbrel, the Red Sox 2018 closer, is still on the market and the Red Sox still need a closer so I can't but wonder if he doesn't end back on the Red Sox for 2019.
Bryce Harper, an outfielder from the 2018 Nationals is also still on the market. Problem is, he's an outfielder and there just isn't a lot of demand for outfielders. He can hit the ball a ton so his bat is in demand but he want's way too much money.
Manny Machado, the third baseman from the 2018 Orioles/Dodgers can't seem to find a landing spot but he's got a couple of issues: he wants a lot of money and he's kind of a dingbat.
I suspect all three will find a job but probably not until March.
As for the Red Sox, they have a couple of pitchers that could transition quite nicely into the closer role but they also like Kimbrel because he's a known player who fits nicely into the team dynamic.
Time will tell.
