Year-End Free Agent Class

There are no youngsters in Crasnick's list of 2007 end of year free-agents but there look to be some good bargains to be had.

Torii Hunter will probably be the most sought after player this side of Ichiro. Hunter plays a young 31 and looks to be the type of player who will be able to perform at his established level well into his 30's. He's been a very solid offensive player since the 2001 season and has not seen any drop-off from his age 26-28 seasons. If anything, he's become more consistent and provided that consistency at a little better level of offensive production as he's moved into his 30's.

Mike Cameron and Mike Lowell are solid all-around players who will be able to provide slightly above league average offensive numbers while on the defensive side they are bonafide stars who probably won't see much deterioration in their skills over the span of a 3-4 year contract.

Andruw Jones will be the most interesting case. His absolute meltdown this year in his highly anticipated walk year could cost him close to $100 million on the open market. As of last night his .199/.299/.389 line with an 83 OPS+ is quite simply stunning. A strong second half could go a long way in getting much of that $100 mil back.
