MLB Free Agents 2022: Rumors and Predictions for Top Available Players
Carlos Correa is a World Series champion and All-Star shortstop. He is being courted by several teams this offseason. The Baltimore Orioles are interested in signing him.
The Los Angeles Dodgers will not pursue Carlos Correa. The Giants are interested in signing him. Correza is coming off his best season since the World Series. He is a veteran player with experience on the biggest stages. The Yankees signed Aaron Judge to a nine-year, $360 million deal. Trea Turner signed a 11-years, £300 million contract with Philadelphia. Xander Bogaerts signed an 11 years, (£280 million) deal with San Diego. They are both shortstops. San Francisco is interested. It is also interested to sign a starting pitcher and an outfielder.
The Cardinals and Chicago Cubs are interested in signing 2021 world champion Dansby Swanson. The Cardinals have a good group of position players and they could use Swanson to play different positions. Swanson would bring 25 home runs, an on-base percentage of .329 and a batting average of. 277. Tommy Edman was converted from second base to shortstop in 2022. The Cubs have the better team and are closer to winning than the Cardinals.
The Baltimore Orioles are not expected to offer any long-term deals to pitchers this offseason. They will probably stick to short- term deals within the 2-3 years range. The team held a Zoom meeting with Noah Syndergaard. He would be a good addition to the team's young pitchers. The O's will sign him to a two-year deal. It's unlikely he would like to play in the tough AL East.
