Opening Day Poll: Best Offseason?

By Jeff Todd | April 6, 2015 at 8:00am CDT

Punctuated by yet another major trade involving the Padres and the Braves, this offseason has been a memorable one. But our future recollections of the moves made will be colored by the months and years to come, as the bottom-line results of the winter’s transactions come to pass.

So, before we’ve all had a chance to benefit from information that was not available to the front offices that were actually making the decisions, let’s see how MLBTR’s readers view things. We are not looking for the team that put itself in the best position to win in 2015, or that made the biggest or most impactful moves. Instead, the question is which club most improved its overall short and long-term outlook by the things it did and didn’t do.

(For what it’s worth, MLBTR’s Steve Adams and I picked our favorites in the most recent MLBTR podcast, though I won’t name names here for fear of skewing the vote.)

The poll question (response order randomized): what team, in your view, had the best offseason?

Which Team Had The Best Offseason?
Padres 44.50% (8,701 votes)
Red Sox 7.08% (1,384 votes)
Braves 6.60% (1,290 votes)

Blue Jays 4.81% (940 votes)

Dodgers 3.66% (716 votes)
Mariners 2.40% (470 votes)
Cardinals 2.39% (468 votes)
Nationals 1.68% (329 votes)
Mets 1.51% (295 votes)
Yankees 1.43% (279 votes)
Marlins 1.31% (257 votes)
Athletics 1.28% (251 votes)
Astros 1.11% (217 votes)
Pirates 1.10% (216 votes)
