Traditionally do this right after the World Series is over. Where are these free agents going to sign?

Marcell Ozuna
Trevor Bauer
JT Realmuto
George Springer
Andrelton Simmons
Justin Turner
Michael Brantley
Joc Pederson
 
Marcell Ozuna = Rangers
Trevor Bauer = Angels
JT Realmuto = Mets
George Springer = Braves :)
Andrelton Simmons = Reds
Justin Turner = Dodgers
Michael Brantley = Indians
Joc Pederson = Phillies
 
I'm curious about the market overall, but really curious about what Simmons' market will look like. Reds, Phillies, and possibly Mets and Brewers seem to jump out as teams with dreams of contending as likely interest/need along with a few bottom-feeders who probably too far away to go after a 31-year-old defensive whiz whose offense may be slipping.
 
My favorite part of the baseball world. My ideal moves this off season would be trade for Bryant. Dont know who or what Braves have to trade for a Bryant but dependent on Cubs future AA should have the chips. Free agent signing: Right now favorite would be La Stella if Bryant is obtained. Followed by Schoop and Miller in that order. Would really like a LH bat to put in the bottom third of the order. Not ready to pick a pitcher just yet.

Where would La Stella play? Would he be the DH? I'm guessing someone will give La Stella more than what the Braves would likely offer and assurance of being the starting second baseman. They loved him in Oakland and I'll be surprised if they don't spring for him.
 
Still too early to make any reasonable predictions. The DH and how much pay roll teams will have need to be ironed out.
 
Marcell Ozuna - Reds
Trevor Bauer - Braves
JT Realmuto - Mets
George Springer - Nationals
Andrelton Simmons - Braves
Justin Turner - Dodgers
Michael Brantley - Dodgers
Joc Pederson - Miami

In the trade for Bryant I have to assume Riley is going to Chicago. In my lineup Bryant would play LF. La Stella would be a low cost DH somewhere in the bottom 3 of the lineup. Backup Ozzie or 3rd. Ozzie becomes Swansons backup.

Justin Turner - Several nursing homes, followed by a few cancer wards, then he'll roll around in a bunch of buffets

I have never respected you more.
 
yeah i don't see the logic in signing Simmons.
Dansby is probably the better player the next few years as well.
