The Best MLB Free Agents That Remain Unsigned Entering Spring Training
Pitchers and catchers have begun reporting to spring training, and a number of talented free agents remain unsigned.
Among players unsigned are All-Stars Gary Sanchez, Mike Moustakas, Dee Strange-Gordon and Justin Upton, and 2020 American League home run champion Luke Voit. World Series champions Jackie Bradley Jr. and Albert Almora Jr. are also free agents.
Sanchez was at one point a very promising prospect in the Yankees' farm system that found immediate success in the big leagues. Over his first 175 career games, Sanchez slashed .284/.354/.923 with 53 home runs. Sanchez was limited behind the plate however, and his defensive struggled carried over offensively too. After slashing .204/.307/.730 in 2021, the Yankees traded him to the Minnesota Twins in a package for Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Josh Donaldson.
