This week of free agent options is an eclectic bunch headlined by two pitchers who are quite different. They’re joined by a prospect infielder that should get his first taste of big league joe soon, an outfielder that brings a healthy blend of power and speed, and another that has

Sonny Gray leads the pack ranking ninth, Scott Kazmir ranking 12th, and Jesse Chavez rounding out the trio ranking 17th. The important thing at this
