Non tender candidates according to MLBTR

[wildcard]

Friday, December 2nd is the date by which the clubs have to tender their arbitration player.   Here is a list of players taken for the MLBTR Off Season Outlooks that may be non tendered.  This is only their guess and some of the players may have already been released.

Personally, I don't think Flaherty will be non tendered.  

Anyone of interest?

Rockies: McGee, Lyles

D'Back: Gosewisch

White Sox: Lawrie, Garcia

Blue Jays:  Thole

Mets: Rivera

Red Sox: Abad, Holaday, Workman

Astros: None

Cardinals: None

Padres:  Amarista, Arcia, Sanchez, Wallace

Brewers:  Carter, Gennett, Peralta

Mariners:  Furbush, Wilhelmsen, Cook, Clevenger, Sucre

Royals: Gee, Collins, Nava, Cruz

Braves: Collmenter, Withrow, Recker, Rodriguez

McGee for sure.  Go over the mechanics of this again.  If a guy is non tendered, is he now a FA? No waiver wire rules?  No arbitration process?

MLB has this explanation.

 

Hope it helps.

What's the word on Ben Revere? Bounce-back candidate?

That would be my theory. McFarland is gone IMO. I think the Vanimal leaves if Tommy Hunter stays, or if the 25 man roster doesn't expand to 26

He was bogged down by an oblique injury.  So he could be productive if healthy.  Though I think his arm lends him to be a LFer.  If the plan is to have Kim DH, then he'd make some sense.  But they'd still need to get a RFer.

Why can't he play RF? His arm is good enough to get it done there, and it would be cheaper to do so.

There is a lot of catchers out there that would make sense if they want to get a defensive guy.   I also like Jeff Locke from Pittsburgh he could be a long man and not cost to much and spot start vs a left handed team.  He was down last year but was solid in Pittsburgh previous years.

We need a strong daily catcher, enough depth in the org, bound to be a backup among them.

Yeah but not sure there is one out there that would take a one year deal.  Hundley seems like the best option.

[Redskins Rick]

I agree, and not real fond of the Hundley option either.

Unless Joseph can bounce back to his pre 2016 form, this team is going to be hurting at catcher.

See my link to fangraphs a few posts up.  I was under the impression that he did not have a strong arm.  That article confirmed it.

Correct.

Also if a player is nontender he can't be re-signed by that club until May 15 maybe?
