The offseason is here! At MLB Trade Rumors, our Top 50 Free Agent List and the contract/team predictions associated with each player has come to be an annual tradition and one of our most anticipated pieces of the year. However, free agency only makes up a portion of the offseason roster reconstruction that MLBTR fans follow so voraciously.
We took a look at 25 trade candidates early last offseason and saw six of the top eight moved, with seven overall members of the list changing hands... We're upping that number to 35 this time around, in large part because a few teams figure to have a broad number of players available on the market.
The White Sox will continue their 'anything that's not nailed down' approach to the trade market, and the Cardinals for the first time in recent history are taking a step back and adopting a more future-looking approach as they overhaul their player development department.
This isn't a strict ranking of players' trade value, nor is it solely about likelihood of being moved. We're trying to balance both of those things, an inherently subjective exercise.
