World Series Futures Bets Following the Winter Meetings | Daily Betslip
As baseball's 2022 Winter Meetings come to a conclusion, more than $2 billion was spent by Major League ballclubs this offseason, and that was before Xander Bogaerts and the San Diego Padres agreed to an 11-year, $280 million deal late on Wednesday night!
With the latest frenzy of spending -- Aaron Judge for $360 million, Masataka Yoshida for $105.4 million, Willson Contreras for $87.5 million, Taijuan Walker for $72 million -- Major League Baseball teams now have guaranteed more than $2 billion in future salaries this winter.

With Aaron Judge remaining in New York with the Yankees, Justin Verlander coming to New York to join the Mets, and Jacob deGrom leaving New York to head south to become a Texas Ranger, plenty of teams have made massive moves this offseason to set themselves up to be contenders in 2022.
Plus, former Washington Nationals teammates Trea Turner and Bryce Harper are back together, as Turner signed an 11-year deal to leave the L.A. Dodgers and sign with the Philadelphia Phillies, while longtime Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras is trading in his Cubbie blue for Cardinal red, inking a five-year deal down I-55 in St. Louis to replace Yadier Molina.
