2025 Baseball: Winter Meetings, Hall of Fame & Sonny Gray News

The 2025 Winter Baseball Meetings season is officially underway in Orlando, Florida, and the Baseball Counter-B-Cast The crew is in the area. This is typically the week when deals start to blossom and big free agents are plucked from the tree. Last year we saw Juan Soto and the New York Mets impress a deal, as well as Max Fried join the New York Yankees, so you never know what could happen.

In this episode of Baseball Counter-B-CastJake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman give their thoughts on what could happen at this year’s meetings and what they’re looking forward to, including Scott Boras’ annual free agent presentation. They then discuss Jeff Kent’s selection into the Baseball Hall of Fame by the Veterans Committee and why it will be at least five years until Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds possibly have their last chance to be inducted.

Later, Jake and Jordan talk about the Seattle Mariners, Boston Red Sox, Washington Nationals, and Pittsburgh Pirates all making trades with their hopes pinned on 2026, as well as some free agents coming off the board. Then they get into the Sonny Gray vs. the Yankees drama that unfolded following the report that he was wrong to join the Yankees in 2017.
