Where will they sign - Top 20 Free Agents

[markakis8]

Thought it would be fun to have a little league and see who gets the most points in guess where free agents will sign. I'm using MLBtraderumors.com Top 50 FA list and removed David Ortiz since he already signed. You get 1 point for each one you get right. Just simply put who you think the player will sign with this winter.

Here is the list:

1. Zack Greinke - Rangers
2. Josh Hamilton - Rangers
3. Michael Bourn - Phillies
4. Anibal Sanchez - Tigers
5. B.J. Upton - Phillies
6. Nick Swisher - Orioles
7. Edwin Jackson - Blue Jays
8. Dan Haren - Padres
9. Hideki Kuroda - Yankees
10. Kyle Lohse - Cardinals
11. Angel Pagan - Giants
12. Shane Victorino - Braves
13. Mike Napoli - Red Sox
14. Adam LaRoche - Nationals
15. Ryan Dempster - Brewers
16. Rafael Soriano - Yankees
17. Melky Cabrera - Red Sox
18. Shaun Marcum - Twins
19. Torii Hunter - Yankees
20. Russell Martin - Yankees

Isn't Scutaro a FA? ( I would've thought he'd be on that list)

 

[speedmasterp]

I thought about just copying your list player for player so that we would tie. I'm am going to do zero research and just put random teams, b/c its seems like the more research I do with stuff (espeically NFL pick'em) the worse I do.

1. Zack Greinke - Angels
2. Josh Hamilton - Orioles
3. Michael Bourn - Yankees
4. Anibal Sanchez - Indians
5. B.J. Upton - Blue Jays
6. Nick Swisher - Orioles
7. Edwin Jackson - White Sox
8. Dan Haren - Angels
9. Hideki Kuroda - Yankees
10. Kyle Lohse - Cardinals
11. Angel Pagan - Giants
12. Shane Victorino - Padres
13. Mike Napoli - Royals
14. Adam LaRoche - Nationals
15. Ryan Dempster - Red Sox
16. Rafael Soriano - Yankees
17. Melky Cabrera - Giants
18. Shaun Marcum - Orioles
19. Torii Hunter - Angels
20. Russell Martin - Yankees

He was like 25...there were intriguing names I could've added like Scutaro and Cody Ross but the longer the list is, the less people play.

Obviously he's not really top anything, but anyone think someone will sign Matsuzaka?

I believe it's back to Japan for Dice-K

I was thinking the same thing.Some other pitching starved team like the Rockies or Orioles will overpay.

Wonder if the Cubs try to go big. Pre-arbitration, they have shaved their payroll down to $69 million for 2013.

A lot of people seem to think they're going to hard for Marcum and Ryu from Korea. Hopefully they do something to avoid another 100 loss season

I would puke in my mouth if the Brewers sign Hamilton. They need another SP.

Why would the Royals sign Napoli? They are set at catcher.

Agree, I still think Greinke wants to come back to Milwaukee. Melvin knows they are set with position players so Hamilton is a stretch unless they get him for a deal because of the Narron brothers.

I really hope they can sign Greinke too. Not sure I see it happening, but it would be nice.

 

[Bornagaincollector]

I would like to see the Indians open up the wallet a little and signed Napoli! They can play Santana at 1st mostly.Doubt it would happen.

I don't think you would throw up too much if the price was right. Braun/Hamilton isn't just as good as Braun/Fielder. You could be getting 90 homers from those 2.
