AL EAST
Blue Jays
SP Shane Bieber, SP Patrick Corbin, RP Yimi García, SP Max Scherzer, RP Paul Sewald, DH George Springer, OF Myles Straw, SP Jameson Taillon, INF Luis Urías
Bo Bichette departed in free agency last winter, and the Blue Jays dealt Kevin Gausman, Daulton Varsho and Jeff Hoffman at the 2026 Trade Deadline. Now, several others from Toronto’s 2025 World Series roster could be on their way out, with Springer the most notable among them. The veteran slugger just finished up a six-year, $150 million contract, which was the largest deal in franchise history at the time it was signed. He hit .260 with 134 homers and a .791 OPS in a Blue Jays uniform.
Orioles
RP Keegan Akin, SP Chris Bassitt, SP Zach Eflin, RP Dietrich Enns, RP Andrew Kittredge, OF Heston Kjerstad, 1B Ryan Mountcastle, OF Luis Robert Jr., SP Trevor Rogers^, OF Leody Taveras
Rogers was the Orioles’ top pitcher over the past two seasons, recording a 3.16 ERA with 7.3 fWAR over 48 starts. Mountcastle is Baltimore’s longest-tenured player, but his time with the O’s could be over after the club declined his 2027 option. The Orioles also declined Robert’s 2027 club option. Baltimore claimed him off waivers from the Mets in August, but the outfielder played just three games before going on the IL with a left hamstring strain.
Rays
2B Gavin Lux, 2B Nick Madrigal, SP Nick Martinez, SS Jorge Mateo, OF Cedric Mullins, SP Freddy Peralta
The Rays exercised Drew Rasmussen’s $20 million club option for 2027, but they are in danger of losing two other members of their playoff rotation after Martinez and Peralta hit free agency. Martinez led the Rays in starts and innings while posting a 3.10 ERA in 2026, and Peralta was a big add for Tampa Bay at the Trade Deadline, posting a 3.25 ERA over 10 starts in the regular season before winning ALCS MVP honors.
Red Sox
SP Sonny Gray, INF Isiah Kiner-Falefa, SP Patrick Sandoval
Gray is easily the most important name on Boston’s free-agent list, having gone 18-5 with a 2.72 ERA over 29 starts in 2026. The Red Sox acquired the veteran right-hander from the Cardinals last offseason. Kiner-Falefa (1.1 fWAR) and Sandoval (1.3 fWAR) were both marginal contributors for Boston in 2026.
Yankees
RP David Bednar^, RP Paul Blackburn, 2B Jazz Chisholm Jr., RP Michael Fulmer, 1B Paul Goldschmidt, OF Trent Grisham, RP Tim Hill, INF Amed Rosario, RP John Schreiber, RP Ryan Yarbrough
With 10 players hitting free agency, the Yankees could face significant roster churn this offseason. New York’s list includes its closer (Bednar), its top righty setup man (Blackburn) and three of its top five home run hitters from 2026: Chisholm (19 HR), Grisham (18 HR) and Goldschmidt (18 HR).
AL CENTRAL
Guardians
RP Shawn Armstrong, SP Foster Griffin, C Austin Hedges, 1B Rhys Hoskins, 1B Nathaniel Lowe, RP Trevor Stephan
The Guardians acquired Griffin from the Nats for four players prior to the 2026 Trade Deadline. The left-hander earned his first All-Star selection this past season and finished with a 3.60 ERA over 31 starts, though he had just a 5.19 ERA in nine starts for Cleveland.
Royals
RP Carlos Estévez, 2B Jonathan India, RP Craig Kimbrel, C Luke Maile, INF Josh Rojas
After leading MLB with 42 saves in 2025, Estévez missed nearly all of '26 due to injury. The Royals declined his $13 million club option for 2027 after the righty underwent shoulder surgery on his rotator cuff in September. India was also sidelined for much of 2026, undergoing left shoulder surgery in April. The 2021 NL Rookie of the Year, India posted a .665 OPS over two seasons for the Royals, who acquired him from the Reds for pitcher Brady Singer in November ’24.
Tigers
SP Jack Flaherty, RP Kenley Jansen, RP Tyler Kinley, RP Burch Smith, 2B Gleyber Torres
Flaherty, Jansen and Torres are all notable names, but the Tigers’ most significant departure came at the Trade Deadline, when Detroit sent two-time Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal to the Dodgers rather than risk losing him in free agency.
Twins
1B Josh Bell, C Ryan Jeffers^, RP A.J. Minter, RP Taylor Rogers
Jeffers was a trade candidate over the summer, but the Twins ended up buying -- acquiring Minter, among others -- in pursuit of a playoff berth that never came to fruition. The 29-year-old catcher has produced a .782 OPS since the beginning of 2023. Bell led Minnesota with 96 RBIs this past season while reaching the 20-homer plateau for the sixth time.
White Sox
SP Erick Fedde, OF Randal Grichuk, RP Sean Newcomb, OF Tommy Pham, RP Trevor Richards, C Jake Rogers
Signed in May after being released by the Yankees, Grichuk was one of Chicago’s most productive hitters this past season, albeit in a part-time role. The 35-year-old went deep 15 times with 44 RBIs and a .926 OPS over 247 plate appearances in a White Sox uniform. Meanwhile, Fedde (141 IP), Newcomb (90 1/3 IP) and Richards (78 2/3 IP) recorded a combined 310 innings with a 3.60 ERA for Chicago in 2026, helping the club cobble together a serviceable pitching staff to complement its superb offense en route to a surprising playoff berth.
AL WEST
Angels
C Travis d'Arnaud, 2B Adam Frazier, 3B Yoán Moncada, RP Robert Stephenson
Injuries limited Stephenson to just 12 appearances (all in 2025) during the three-year, $33 million deal the veteran righty signed with the Angels after his dominant stint with the Rays in ’23. The Halos declined his 2027 club option, making him a free agent. d’Arnaud, Frazier and Moncada combined for a .598 OPS over 361 plate appearances in 2026.
Astros
RP Bryan Abreu, RP Enyel De Los Santos, RP Steven Okert, OF Daulton Varsho, C Christian Vázquez, 1B LaMonte Wade Jr., RP Ryan Weiss
Abreu got off to a rocky start in 2026, but he looked like his usual self after the calendar flipped to May. He leads all relievers in strikeouts (476) since the beginning of 2022. Varsho struggled to the tune of a .535 OPS over 41 games after joining the Astros in a trade. His overall .637 OPS between Toronto and Houston on the year was down nearly 200 points from 2025 (.833).
Athletics
C Jonah Heim, RP Mark Leiter Jr., 2B Jeff McNeil, SP Jeffrey Springs
The A’s turned down their 2027 club options for both McNeil and Springs, making them free agents. Acquired in an offseason trade with the Mets, McNeil was worth 0.1 fWAR while serving as the club’s regular second baseman in 2026. Springs, meanwhile, posted a 6.18 ERA with -0.4 fWAR over 29 starts.
Mariners
OF Randy Arozarena^, SS J.P. Crawford, RP Hoby Milner, OF Victor Robles, OF Taylor Ward
Arozarena produced a 148 OPS+ in 2026 -- tied for fifth best among qualifiers -- while notching his sixth straight 20-20 campaign. He’s one of the top free agents on the market this offseason. Crawford posted a .249/.344/.369 slash with a 106 OPS+ and 15.9 fWAR over the past six seasons, but Seattle’s crowded infield could leave him searching for a new home. He may also need to consider a new position after recording -25 FRV at shortstop from 2023-26.
Rangers
RP Tyler Alexander, RP Jalen Beeks, C Elias Díaz, C Kyle Higashioka, RP Jakob Junis, INF Nicky Lopez, SP Jordan Montgomery, DH Joc Pederson, SP Cal Quantrill, SP Trevor Williams
After a forgettable first season with the Rangers (.614 OPS) in 2025, Pederson put together a strong rebound campaign (26 HR, .816 OPS) in '26. Quantrill was a valuable swingman for Texas in 2026, tossing 110 innings with a 2.86 ERA over 32 games (15 starts). Alexander tied for fifth in the Majors with 75 appearances, posting a 3.70 ERA.
NL EAST
Braves
UTIL Mauricio Dubón, INF Kyle Farmer, RP Elieser Hernández, RP Raisel Iglesias, RP Joe Jiménez, SS Ha-Seong Kim, SP Tyler Mahle, SP Martín Pérez, 1B Dominic Smith, RP Brent Suter, OF Lane Thomas
Robert Suarez would be in line to take over as Atlanta’s closer if Iglesias departs, but the Braves could look to bring Iglesias back after Suarez dealt with arm issues in 2026. The Braves also need to sort out shortstop, with Dubón and Kim no longer under contract. The position has been a revolving door since Dansby Swanson left as a free agent to sign with the Cubs after 2022. Atlanta’s rotation got a much-needed boost from Pérez, signed in April, and Mahle, acquired at the Trade Deadline, as Spencer Strider, Spencer Schwellenbach, AJ Smith-Shawver and Hurston Waldrep combined to make just 15 starts in 2026.
Marlins
The Marlins exercised Sandy Alcantara’s $21 million option for 2027, leaving Fairbanks as their only free agent. The veteran righty led the Marlins with 19 saves in 2026, but his 6.31 ERA left a lot to be desired. Miami signed him to a one-year, $13 million contract after the Rays declined his 2026 club option.
Mets
One of MLB’s most disappointing teams in 2026, the Mets shipped out most of their pending free agents prior to the Trade Deadline, dealing away Freddy Peralta, Clay Holmes, A.J. Minter, Brooks Raley, David Peterson and Tyrone Taylor. Another pending free agent, Luis Robert Jr., was claimed off waivers by the Orioles in late August. Bo Bichette had a chance to become a free agent for the second straight offseason, but he’ll be back for 2027 after opting into his contract.
Nationals
The Nationals released Trevor Williams, Miles Mikolas, Zack Littell and Shinnosuke Ogasawara before the end of the regular season, leaving the team with a clean sheet as free agency got underway last week.
Phillies
RP José Alvarado, 2B Luis Arraez, 3B Alec Bohm, SP Nestor Cortes, OF Adolis García, RP Tim Mayza, RP Brooks Raley, UTIL Edmundo Sosa
After rearranging their defense to make room for Arraez, who joined Philadelphia at the Trade Deadline, the Phillies could move Bryce Harper and Bryson Stott back to first base and second base, respectively. But that still leaves them with holes to fill at third base and in right field. Bohm has been the club’s regular third baseman since his debut in 2020. The Phillies signed García last offseason to be their starting right fielder, but he posted a .599 OPS before tearing his right lat in June.
NL CENTRAL
Brewers
1B Jake Bauers^, SP Dustin May, RP JoJo Romero, C Gary Sánchez, RP Antonio Senzatela, SP Brandon Woodruff
Bauers could be in line for a significant pay increase after earning $2.7 million in his final year of arbitration eligibility. The 31-year-old enjoyed a career year in 2026, finishing the regular season with 26 homers, 86 RBIs and an .874 OPS -- up from .672 across '18-25 -- before earning NLCS MVP honors as the Brewers won it all. Woodruff, who accepted the qualifying offer to stay with Milwaukee last offseason, owns a lifetime 3.10 ERA but has made just 32 starts since the beginning of 2023 due to shoulder issues. The Brewers acquired May, Romero and Senzatela at the Trade Deadline. Romero made a big impact in October, yielding just three hits and a walk with 11 strikeouts over eight innings of one-run ball (1.13 ERA, 0.50 WHIP).
Cardinals
RP Ryne Stanek
The Cardinals traded Dustin May and JoJo Romero to the Brewers in July and then released both Caleb Ferguson and Ramón Urías, so Stanek -- whose club option was declined -- is the only player from St. Louis’ end-of-season roster entering free agency.
Cubs
1B Tyler Austin, SP Matthew Boyd, SP/RP Aaron Civale, OF Michael Conforto, SP Kevin Gausman, OF Ian Happ, RP Hunter Harvey, SP Clay Holmes, SP Shota Imanaga, C Carson Kelly, SP David Peterson, SP/RP Colin Rea, OF Seiya Suzuki^, OF Tyrone Taylor, RP Caleb Thielbar, RP Trent Thornton
The Cubs’ free-agent list is extensive, featuring two starting outfielders (Suzuki, Happ), their starting catcher (Kelly) and a glut of starting pitchers. Suzuki, who produced 113 homers and an .823 OPS over his five-year, $85 million deal with the Cubs, is one of the top overall free agents on the market this offseason. Imanaga (32 starts), Boyd (22), Rea (19), Peterson (15), Gausman (nine) and Holmes (nine) combined to make 106 of Chicago’s 162 starts in 2026.
Pirates
2B Brandon Lowe^, RP Gregory Soto, RP Kirby Yates
The Pirates' trade for Lowe was one of the best moves any team made last offseason. The second baseman led the team with 4.9 fWAR, producing 35 homers, 96 RBIs and an .824 OPS while playing strong defense at second base. Signing Soto to a one-year, $7.75 million deal in free agency also worked out well; the lefty converted 16 saves with a 3.63 ERA and a 10.6 K/9.
Reds
RP Brock Burke, RP Pierce Johnson, RP Emilio Pagán, SP Brady Singer, C Tyler Stephenson, 3B Eugenio Suárez
Pagán, who declined his 2027 player option, could be the most sought-after player on the Reds’ free-agent list after notching 57 saves with a 3.07 ERA and 10.2 K/9 over the past two years. Suárez’s second stint with the Reds got off to a slow start after he rejoined the club on a one-year, $15 million deal in February, but he salvaged his batting line with 17 homers and an .856 OPS over his final 60 games. The streaky slugger ranks 10th among active players with 351 home runs. Singer has made more than 30 starts in each of the past three years, but his ERA ballooned to 5.85 in 2026 -- up from 3.86 across '24-25. Stephenson has recorded 78 homers with a .757 OPS since he made his MLB debut with the Reds in 2020, but poor defensive metrics (-35 FRV since 2022) could put a dent in his market.
NL WEST
D-backs
RP Taylor Clarke, SP Zac Gallen, RP Kevin Ginkel, RP Jonathan Loáisiga, C James McCann, RP A.J. Puk, RP Dennis Santana, SP Michael Soroka, RP Ryan Thompson, INF Ildemaro Vargas
While Soroka (3.41 ERA in 116 IP), Clarke (2.96 ERA in 73 IP) and Loáisiga (2.42 ERA in 67 IP) proved to be solid additions to Arizona’s pitching staff in 2026, the move to re-sign Gallen was a different story. The former All-Star, who returned to Arizona on a one-year, $22.025 million deal last winter, recorded a 6.07 ERA over 105 1/3 innings. Ginkel led the team with 74 appearances, notching a 4.12 ERA and a 3.50 FIP.
Dodgers
SP Kris Bubic, RP Brusdar Graterol, UTIL Kiké Hernández, SP/RP Eric Lauer, RP Evan Phillips, SP Tarik Skubal, RP Blake Treinen, RP Alex Vesia
The Dodgers' pursuit of a third straight World Series title fell short after they gave up three prospects to land Skubal at the Trade Deadline. Los Angeles will likely look to re-sign the left-hander, but he's the top player on the market this offseason and should draw significant interest. Vesia, Phillips and Treinen are playoff-tested relief options, though the latter two have missed a lot of time with injuries in recent years. Hernández, who owns a lifetime .806 OPS with 17 homers in the postseason, has been a key role player on three Dodgers title teams. He's signed with Los Angeles as a free agent in each of the past three winters.
Giants
RP JT Brubaker, C Andrew Knizner, RP Rowan Wick
The Giants traded away most of their pending free agents before the Trade Deadline, dealing Luis Arraez (Phillies), Robbie Ray (Padres) and Tyler Mahle (Braves). Brubaker filled a low-leverage relief role for San Francisco, finishing 2026 with a 3.58 ERA over 41 games. Knizner is a lifetime .212/.281/.319 hitter over eight seasons for the Cardinals, Rangers and Giants.
Padres
RP Jason Adam, DH Miguel Andujar, SP Walker Buehler, SP Griffin Canning, 1B Ty France, SP Lucas Giolito, OF Austin Hays, SP Michael King, OF Ramón Laureano, SP Casey Mize, RP Adrian Morejon^, SP Nick Pivetta, SP Robbie Ray, INF Luis Rengifo
Starting pitching appears to be the Padres’ top priority this offseason. King, who opted out with two years left on his deal with San Diego, is one of the top starters on the market. Pivetta is also a free agent after San Diego declined his 2027 club option. He missed nearly five months with a flexor strain this past season but was excellent on a per-start basis over the past two years (2.87 ERA, 0.99 WHIP). Add in Ray, Mize, Buehler, Giolito and Canning, and that’s a lot of starts the Padres need to replace, even if those five weren’t particularly effective for San Diego this past season. The team’s bullpen could also take a hit if Morejon departs. He doesn’t have closing experience, but he’s arguably the best available reliever. France provided tremendous value after signing a Minor League deal with the Friars in February, slashing .295/.363/.502 with 21 homers and playing superb defense at first base.
Rockies
SP Kyle Freeland, SP Jose Quintana, RP Jordan Romano, SP Tomoyuki Sugano
The Rockies tried to infuse their perpetually beleaguered pitching staff with some veteran experience last offseason, signing Quintana and Sugano as well as Michael Lorenzen. However, the trio combined for a 6.00 ERA over 318 innings, and Lorenzen was released in August. Freeland (6.65 ERA) also struggled in the final season of a five-year, $64.5 million deal. Romano was a bright spot by comparison, leading the Rockies with 11 saves and posting a 4.21 ERA over 27 games for Colorado after being released by the Angels in April.
