CARDINALS: St. Louis ranked 12th in the National League in runs scored, while its .665 OPS in the outfield ranked 14th. Santander’s bat would help revive the sagging lineup.
PHILLIES: There has been talk of trading Nick Castellanos, which would open right field for the switch-hitting Santander, who is three years younger (30 years old).
ORIOLES: Baltimore has seen Santander blossom into one of the league’s top power threats, and while the Orioles have a wealth of young talent, losing him would be a blow.
REDS: Cincinnati’s .682 OPS from its outfielders ranked 13th in the National League, so the Reds would benefit from the addition of Santander’s thump.
GIANTS: Mike Yastrzemski is one year from free agency and the Giants could use a power boost, making Santander a strong fit for San Francisco’s outfield.
