Early Winter Meetings Update, Jarred Kelenic to Atlanta & Jackson Chourio's Deal

From Rates & Barrels: A show about Baseball The Athletic

Eno, DVR and Britt discuss the reason for the slow start to moves during the Winter Meetings before digging into the surprising five-player swap that sent Jarred Kelenic to Atlanta on Sunday night. Are the Mariners' positioning themselves for a big move as a result of their recent cost-cutting? Plus, Jackson Chourio's record-setting contract for a player with zero MLB service time, a full-time move to second base for Mookie Betts in 2024, and a role change on tap for Mason Miller.
