As 2017 comes to a close, it’s a good time to consider what each MLB team would like for the holiday gift season.

MLB team wishlists.

Ahh, it’s the holiday season. It’s that wonderful time of year when many people get together with their beloved immediate family or their not-so-beloved extended family.

Some people live away from family so they spend time with friends and acquaintances. Many people will eat, drink and be merry. Songs will be sung, prayers will be said and, of course, presents will be opened.

It’s easier for kids. They mostly just receive presents and are the easiest to shop for because they want so many things. Adults usually give and receive presents and are more difficult to shop for.

One of the most difficult things is figuring out what to give to another adult because part of adulating is having the ability to buy the things you want. When the gift-giving season comes around, what do get for someone who has most of the things they need?

Grandparents are especially difficult to shop for. They not only have most everything they need, they often have two or three of them. Grandpa doesn’t want another tie or set of gloves and Grandma can’t fit another figurine on her fireplace mantel.

With the MLB offseason trudging slowly along and the holiday season upon us, it’s time to consider the best gift for each MLB team. Some teams have big shopping lists, like an excited little kid sitting on Santa’s lap asking for presents until her parents drag her away.

They want everything they can get. Other teams are like grandparents; they already have everything they need, and anything more would be a waste.

So, while you wait for the annual holiday arguments to start, consider what your favorite MLB team would most like this holiday gift season.
