AL West Roundup: Winter Meetings Day 2

What started out as a very slow second day picked up as the evening went along, as Tuesday as the winter meetings finished with five signings and the meetings’ first two trades.

The two biggest names – Zack Greinke and Josh Hamilton – remain on the market, but the Dodgers and Rangers, respectively, appear to have a bead on the free-agent pair.

Since it’s difficult enough to keep track of what’s going on with your own team at the winter meetings – let alone the entire league – we’ve broken down all of Day 2’s action by division.

Here’s quick bullet point look at what went on with the AL West on Tuesday:
