The 2027 Free Agent Tracker Is Here! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The 2027 Free Agent Tracker is now live! There are currently 244 players on the list, with more sure to be added after the postseason concludes and teams begin to clear space on their 40-man rosters. The Tracker will be updated regularly throughout the offseason as qualifying offers are made (and then accepted or rejected) and free agents find their new homes. Unlike in previous years, we’ve included players with pending contract options or opt-outs on our initial list of free agents. To avoid a

I think it will take a lot to trust Jones down the stretch and in the post-season, especially since they’ll be facing mostly really good pitching. He needs to be very good and show he’s capable in CF. But, like I said, Grisham has so much experience and can be very good. My guess is they’ll stick with the guy who has a track record. Calling him up now (instead of Opening Day 2027) became more likely once Sheets and Rengifo went on the IL. The need for another lefty bat, especially one with a goo

Sounds like he’s going to get a look in LF. Might be better to get those reps in AAA and the Jays can better assess whether he can be more than a 1B/3B/DH.

Lefty bat with power who can play mutliple positions should be valuable. I’d expect to see Soto, Vientos, and Devin Williams at some point in the next couple weeks so it won’t last too much longer.

The other negative is that several playoff contenders that have exceeded expectations acted as if they were just happy to have exceeded expectations and didn’t really do much at the trade deadline. Of course, this allows a team like the Dodgers to be the winner of the Skubal sweepstakes just like it allowed them to get Betts and sign Freeman and several other players because other teams were too cheap to retain their star players. Cheap owners who don’t try is still the biggest problem in baseba

Teams/players can be purposely vague or overly optimistic. But the reality is that MRIs and x-rays don’t always tell the whole story right away. Elbows/shoulders are always going to have some level of wear and tear so those aren’t always clean. The severity isn’t always clear. And then the recovery process isn’t always linear. And not always comparable to other cases. Anyways, that’s just what I’ve observed from 16 years of doing this. It’s probably why “no timetable for return” is what I list a
