We’re entering that time of year where the free agents start to squirm just the tiniest of bits. There hasn’t been much movement with the bigger named free agents as they continue to see what the market will bring them in terms of value, but teams are doing the same. It’s a game of chicken between player and team to get the bigger deal.
So who is the next one to go? One of these players is going to put his name on a contract soon, and my guess is that it is a pitcher. I wouldn’t expect it to be Framber Valdez since I believe his market shrunk with his little temper tantrum on the mound where he tried to injure his catcher. If I had to pick, I’d bet Ranger wants to settle down somewhere soon.
