It may be a tiny bit sacrilegious for us to place Stroman over the likely AL Cy Young winner in Robbie Ray, who has a good shot at reeling in the largest contract of any free-agent pitcher this offseason. The 5' 7" dynamo and solid Twitter follow has recorded an ERA below 3. Ray rebounded from a miserable campaign after which he was ranked as our No.

In the process, the hard-throwing lefthander racked up the most strikeouts through 1, career innings of any pitcher in MLB history. Those accomplishments are made even more impressive when you consider two of the three ballparks the Blue Jays called home in '21 were extremely hitter-friendly minor-league stadiums.

Gausman was the only pitcher giving Jacob deGrom a run for his money in the NL Cy Young race in the first half, when he allowed 22 earned runs in 18 outings, but crashed back to Earth after traveling to Denver for his first All-Star Game. All five of his starts with zero earned runs came in his first 12 appearances the exact amount he made in the shortened season , and he gave up 22 more hits and four more home runs in The former No.

Castellanos has always punished lefties, but he hit righties just as well in '21, posting nearly identical splits. The good seems to have outweighed the objectively hilarious bad, as the Mets seem interested in staying together.

For the first time in his storied career, Clayton Kershaw is a free agent. As has been the case for the last several seasons, the lefthander was effective when he was able to get on the mound in , even if his 3. Kershaw missed two months while dealing with elbow and forearm inflammation on his pitching arm, returned in mid-September but then left his Oct.

His health will be the biggest determining factor in what kind of deal he gets, and makes him a particularly difficult player to rank in this list. It was an ideal platform year for Marte, who set career highs for on-base percentage. The catalyst seems to have been an increased willingness to take his walks when ahead in the count. The lefthander made 31 starts and notched career bests in strikeout rate He grades out best defensively at second base, where his rough season averages of 20 home runs, 10 stolen bases and an.

Perhaps the Mariners, who ill-advisedly traded Taylor in and are reportedly looking to spend this winter, could bring back their former draftee to replace disappointing year-old Dylan Moore. After starring for Nippon Professional Baseball for the past six seasons, Suzuki is ready to make the leap overseas. In games last season, he hit a career-high 38 home runs with a. Over the past three years, Suzuki has more walks than strikeouts , with 91 home runs in games.

Iglesias was one of the few bright spots on the Angels last season while showing an increased reliance on his changeup to go along with his mids fastball and wicked slider. Out of qualified relievers, the righthander held the third-largest difference between his strikeout rate Belt led the Giants with a career-high 29 home runs despite being limited to just 97 games due to injuries to his oblique, knee and thumb, the last of which sidelined him for the playoffs.

But the two-time World Series champion has also seemingly unlocked a new power stroke that makes him the second-best first baseman on the market; after never posting a slugging percentage above. Conforto was one of several Mets hitters who lost the plot at the plate last season.

He also took a marked step back in the field after leading all outfielders with six assists in Conforto was also one of only five hitters who slashed at least. It could make sense for the former first-round pick to reestablish his value on a one-year pact.
