For those of you that are interested in a general overview of this event go here.
MLB.com has a preview article worth a looksie.
Most of the action will be going on at the Bellagio, which is where all of the MLB General Managers and their staffs are staying. I'm assuming many of the agents, media, and upper echelon execs are holing up there as well. It turns out that XM/Sirius Radio's MLB Home Plate will do a live broadcast inside the lobby of the Bellagio. I called them yesterday and found out they will be reporting from 10 AM EST to 6 PM EST. So too will ESPN's Baseball Tonight which will be airing a Hot Stove Special from the Bellagio Monday thru Thursday for one hour starting at 5 PM EST.
That's not all though.
The under-the-radar Winter Meetings will be taking place at the Las Vegas Convention Center and Las Vegas Hilton. This stuff will get less attention in the media since it's mostly trade shows, work shops, and job fairs. Clearly not as sexy as the wheeling and dealing going on over at the Bellagio. A lot of the minor league people are over there.
As advertised on milb.com:
This is the 107th annual gathering of the baseball convention, a place where club owners, front office personnel, league officials, just about everyone from the business side of the game whether from the Major Leagues, the Minor Leagues or internationally, will gather in one spot.
