If the club includes players who give up their contracts as options and non-tenders, it will increase a lot.
Negotiations with the original team are first until this week, and the contract with the new team will be signed next week. This is because Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy’s two-year, $24 million contract was a priority negotiation with his original team.
The biggest FA player in 2023 is Shohei Ohtani (29), a former LA Angels player. In the 2024 season, he cannot stand on the mound due to elbow ligament joint surgery. However, he is still a top-class hitter. He is the best player in the American League in 2023. The Los Angeles Dodgers, which has disappointed fans this postseason, is active in recruiting Ohtani.
MLB.COM selected Ohtani as the №1 FA ranking, and second place was Orix Buffaloes right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto (25) who knocked on MLB’s door with a posting. Yamamoto, 25, is a special pitcher who has won MVP and the Japanese version of Cy Young Award Sawamura over the past two years. MLB scouts rate any team as the first or second starters.
Third place went to San Diego Padres left-hander Blake Snell. He was sluggish at the beginning of the season with 1 win, 6 losses and an ERA of 5.40, but later emerged as a candidate for the National League Cy Young Award. In his last 23 games, he recorded 13 wins, 3 losses and 1.20. He allowed 14 wins, 9 losses, 2.25 losses, 234 strikeouts, and 99 walks this season. Snell became the first pitcher in MLB history to lead the ERA and walk first. If he wins the Cy Young Award for the second time in his career, the ransom can be even higher. The agent is Scott Boras.
Fourth place is Chicago Cubs Cody Bellinger (28). Bellinger declared FA on the 4th, giving up $25 million in mutual options for clubs and players in 2024. The Cubs have to pay $5 million in buyouts to Bellinger. After the Los Angeles Dodgers suffered humiliation as a non-tender, they played in 130 games for the Cubs, raising their ransom by writing 26 home runs and 97 RBIs with a batting average of 0.07, a on-base percentage of 0.356, and a batting average of 0.525. Bellinger’s agent is Boras, too.
Starting pitcher Aaron Nola (31), who teamed up with Philadelphia Phillies Jack Wheelers on the mound, is MLB.He is ranked fifth in the COMFA rankings. Durability comes first. Since starting 27 games in 2017, he has pitched in 32, 33, and 34 games every year, except for the COVID pandemic (12G) in 2020. He has a career record of 90 wins, 71 losses, and 3.72 in nine years in MLB. There is no mourning for durability without injury. He played in the All-Star Game only once in 2018.
In addition, San Diego Padres closer left-hander Josh Hader (30), Minnesota Twins’ Sonny Gray (34), Texas Rangers World Series lead left-hander Jordan Montgomery (30), LA Dodgers designated hitter JD Martinez (36), and Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Matt Chapman (31) ranked 6th to 10th.
The Dodgers signed Martinez for 10 million dollars a year and hit the jackpot. He recorded 33 home runs and 103 RBIs in 113 games. Martinez’s agent is Boras agent. 카지노사이트먹튀
