Willy Mo Pena is intriguing if he can put a year together, just 27 next year.I figure some of these guys will sign, but its a nice SP crop with Sananta, Sabathia, Lackey and Burnett all potentially hitting the market.Oliver Perez at 27 figures to get paid.

Sheets too.That middle relief list is yet another example of how teams need to develope their own bullpen these days. :goodposting:
 
seems like most of the stud offensive players have options that will be picked up. Out of that group of pitchers, i only see Santana having a chance of hitting the market. (obviously only if he isnt traded) Lackey will have his option picked up and Id be surprised if Burnett opts out. (is he really 32 already) I dont see the Indians letting Sabathia get to market. They'll play him. Some AL team will pay Adam Dunn big bucks to DH. I wouldnt mind teh yankees using that Giambi money to do so.

Crawford would get a big payday too, but his option will likely be picked up as well.

 
Varitek's FA will be interesting since has been the face of the team ...

I thought Teixeira signed an extension with the Braves for three years?

Otherwise, lots of "franchise-like" names and some significant pitchers.

My bad, I didn't realize Lackey had an option, definately will get picked up, probably extended. Dunn is definately intriguing, I could see the O's making a push for him too. They need someone to finally hit that damn warehouse!
