The MLB and the Players Association finally reached an agreement that will allow the 2022 season to begin on April 7, so in the coming days many players will sign million-dollar contracts, especially those who have had stellar performances in recent years.
Here are the top 5 players who do not have a team for the upcoming Major League Baseball campaign:
Here are the Top 5 MLB Free Agents
Trevor Story
Story has established himself as one of the best shortstops in the MLB, especially for his display at the offense in recent years as one of the stars of the Colorado Rockies.
The 29-year-old is on the radar of several teams that are looking for a star infielder, even though he is coming off his least brilliant performance in six years in the Major Leagues.
In the 2021 campaign, Trevor Story finished with a .251 average and .329 OBP, with 24 home runs and 20 stolen bases.
Kris Bryant
Despite lowering his performance after winning the 2016 National League MVP with the Chicago Cubs, Kris Bryant wearing a San Francisco Giants uniform proved, last year, that he can still be an important piece in the lineup of a team with aspirations of reaching the World Series.
A remarkable thing about this player is the fact that he has the ability to play at a good level whether it is as an outfielder or infielder. In addition, he has the ability to connect important hits.
After 7 years in the Major Leagues, Bryant has 167 homers and 487 RBIs.
Nick Castellanos
After achieving the best offensive performance of his career, wearing a Cincinnati Reds uniform in 2021, Nick Castellanos is on the radar of several teams.
The 30-year-old was never able to live up to the expectations with the Detroit Tigers, but at age 31 his talent exploded, something that will surely be taken advantage of by a team looking to sign a star hitter who has the added bonus of playing outfielder or infielder.
In the 2021 MLB season, Castellanos finished the regular round with a .309 average and .362 OBP, with 34 home runs and 100 RBIs.
Freddie Freeman
Freeman is one of the best hitters in baseball, and that is reason enough to star in rumors with a roster of MLB teams with financial power and a hunger for big things.
The MVP-winning first baseman comes from being one of the greatest figures of the World Series with the Atlanta Braves, and is now a free agent at the age of 32.
In 2021, Freddie Freeman closed the regular round with a .300 average and .393 OBP, with 31 homers and 83 runs batted in.
Carlos Correa
The stellar Puerto Rican shortstop is arguably the most sought-after player in free agency for the upcoming Major League Baseball campaign, after starring for the Houston Astros for the first seven years of his career.
Although he does not have the best numbers for a player at his position, Carlos Correa provides leadership and postseason experience, paired up with the fact that he is definitely an elite hitter.
Correa has 133 home runs and 489 RBIs in his MLB career.
