The 2020-21 offseason is one week old and, well, nothing's happened. That isn't surprising though. The MLB offseason, much like the regular season (in non-pandemic times), is a marathon rather than a sprint. The top free agents typically don't sign until a few weeks into the winter, and the trade market can be slow to develop when so many free agents are still on the board.
This is not a great free agent class (here are R.J. Anderson's top 60 free agent rankings) and, because of that, teams could venture out into the trade market to address their needs. Also, with payrolls set to come down, teams may be more willing to trade prospects for a cheap controllable big leaguer rather than sign a free agent for nothing but cash. Moreso than maybe any other offseason in history, money will be a deciding factor in many deals.
Now here are this offseason's top 10 trade candidates, ranked in order of likelihood to be traded and the sheer volume of rumors we expected to hear about each player between now and spring training.
Other possible trade candidates: 3B/OF Miguel Andujar, Yankees; LHP Matthew Boyd, Tigers; RHP Alex Cobb, Orioles; C Willson Contreras, Cubs; OF Joey Gallo, Rangers; OF Kevin Kiermaier, Rays; RHP Joe Musgrove, Pirates; OF Wil Myers, Padres; C Christian Vazquez, Rays
