It's official: We can now add "weather correspondent" to Los Angeles Angels superstar Mike Trout's resume.

Trout has made it known he is a "weather guy," writing in the Players' Tribune he has direct messaged people at The Weather Channel about storm models. With Winter Storm Jonas burying the East Coast, the 2014 American League Most Valuable Player had a chance to live his dream.

With the Texas Rangers less than one month away from reporting to spring training, outfielder Josh Hamilton is still dealing with lingering knee problems. 

New York Mets third baseman David Wright praised Yoenis Cespedes on Friday for being a "great teammate" before the team signed the outfielder to a three-year contract.

The 2015-2016 Major League Baseball offseason has kicked up quite a storm, but it's just about settled. With spring training on the horizon, the peak months of the Hot Stove season are nearly over.

So let's take a minute or two to talk about what we've learned.

It's obviously a lot, but we're going to file the really important stuff into seven key takeaways. These range from interesting new wrinkles that the winter brought to how the free-agent and trade markets behaved to how much money was spent. On that last point, prepare for some big numbers.

The love affair between Yoenis Cespedes and the New York Mets may not turn out to be a long-term relationship. But it'll be more than a fling.

The New York Mets and All-Star outfielder Yoenis Cespedes have agreed to terms on a new contract, according to Jon Heyman of MLB Network.

Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal reported Cespedes and the Mets agreed to a three-year deal worth $75 million with an opt-out clause. Heyman reported Cespedes will get $27.5 million if he opts out.

Like a college student who crams for a test he knows he will fail, the Chicago White Sox have created some artificial hope this offseason with a few creative moves.

The team was almost obligated to double down on a disappointing 2015 season in which the organization thought itself equipped to make a World Series run. It finished the 2015 campaign with a paltry 76-86 record.

This season?

Dominant pitching is still the most valuable weapon in contending for a World Series title, but with offense down around the league, having a potent lineup can go a long way as well.

Just how valuable is a good offense?

The four teams that reached the League Championship Series last season—the Blue Jays, Cubs, Mets and Royals—ranked in the top eight in the league in runs scored during the second half of the season.

With the 2016 Major League Baseball season getting closer every day, it's a good time to talk about some offseason losers.

Fortunately, not that many teams across the MLB landscape fit this particular bill. Many players have changed addresses this winter, and many teams have gotten in on the action. It's been an offseason of winners much more than it's been an offseason of losers.

Finally, after much delay, Chris Davis and Justin Upton are off the board, but Yoenis Cespedes has yet to escape his winter purgatory as the MLB offseason draws to a close.

Based on some puzzling comments from the New York Mets' top decision-maker, it doesn't sound like a return to Citi Field is in the works. But there is a real chance that Cespedes could remain in the National League East in 2016.
