Hot Stove League
As I looked for a good official definition of hot stove league, I was finding that many of the traditional sources (such as the one above) weren’t to my satisfaction. Interestingly, it was Urban Dictionary that had the best, concise definition in my opinion:
The hot stove is a term used to describe all of the personnel movement in baseball. With all of the free agent signings, trades, hirings, and firings.
