  • Players To Watch #1

    Cameron Maybin OF Fla, This is his year. The prize player from the trade just a little over a year ago is poised to let lose. Maybin has been on this list before and is still very young. A eventual 5 tool guy he is a must own this year in all formats.

  • Players To Watch #2

    Matt Wieters C Balt, With R. Hernandez being traded to the reds in the NL. Matt is taking over the young pitching staff of the O's. Will hit for AVG. and be solid defensively, look for power numbers to come along as the year and his career progresses.

  • Players To Watch #3

    Neftali Feliz SP Tex, The Rangers needed to start building a pitching staff and no better a young cornerstone than Feliz. He is as close to a sure thing as you can find right now. A power right arm who moved up quickly from low A to Dble A last season will make the jump to the majors this year. If not out of spring training then not to far into the season the Rangers will need to give him a call.

  • Player To Watch #4

    Aaron Poreda SP ChiW, People when they think of the Vasquez trade to the Braves think it was a dump of somoene Ozzie just did not like, BUT there was more too it and this Left hander is the real reason why. Look for huim to get a mid year call up and he will not dissapoint.

  • Player To Watch #5

    Jason Heyward OF Atl, He will make schafer expendable for the Braves if they are in need of mroe pitching. Heyward is there best bat in the minors and a real star in the making. If you can grab him and stash him do so. Heyward wil be up soon enough and there to stay.

  • Player To Watch #6

    Jeremy Hillickson SP T.B., I always try to find that one person most are not talking about, but have the chance to be someone everyone is talking about in a year or two. Hillickson is that guy, with such huge names ahead of him on the prospect epth chart Hillickson gets lost in the mix. I feel he could be the stable force that holds all these great young arms together. Someone to hold onto in AL only leagues and as he proves himself someone to grab in mix'd leagues as well.

2007 Free Agents (Right Field)

Posted by rotoenquire on May 29, 2006

Here is a position by position look at next years class of Free Agents to get you ready for next year.

Right Field

Moises Alou:  The giants are looking to get younger in the outfield.  Alou, Finley and Bonds all should not be returning next season.  Given Alou's age retirement is close.

Jeromy Burnitz:  The Pirates have a good deal of talent in the wings for the outfield.  Burnitz could be headed to the Giants.

Jermaine Dye:  The WhiteSox need to keep this guy around.  That being said if he does go out to the free agent market the BlueJays could have interest.

Jose Guillen:  I hope that the Nationals keep this guy.  Guillen along with Soriano could be two great bats to build a young team around.  But with new ownership and them wanting to build a team from the minors on up both men will most likely be traded.  Giants, Yankees, RedSox could be on the short list of teams wanting him.

Trot Nixon:  With a bunch of good right fielders in free agency Nixon maybe on the way out.  Giants could be interested here as well.

Gary Sheffield:  Sheffield most likely will not be back for the Yankees.  With all the right fielders out there they can pick and choose.  Sheffield's injury and the Yankees age of players maybe looking for younger talent.  The Giants will have a lot of cash to spend in there outfield Sheffield could back in the NL next season.

Bernie Williams:  Williams doesn't look to be returning next season.  He has been on a steady decline and his age doesn't help.  Retirement could be not far behind.

Other Free Agent Right Fielders:

R, Hidalgo, M. Lawton, J. Mabry, M. Stairs,

Tomorrow we will take a look at Left Fielders.
