Spring training has arrived on the Major League Baseball calendar. The build up to the 2023 season is underway with players reporting to camps in Florida and Arizona this month.
Most of the major free agency business was handled earlier in the offseason. A flurry of moves in December saw the biggest names sign some massive deals: Aaron Judge stayed with the Yankees, the Phillies got Trea Turner, the Rangers inked Jacob deGrom and the Padres made a splash with Xander Bogaerts. And then there was the Carlos Correa saga. The star infielder originally had a deal in place with the Giants, but a physical derailed the agreement and then Correa was set to join the Mets. That didn't happen either as Correa eventually ended up back with the Minnesota Twins.
Below is our list of the offseason's top 50 free agents, and almost all of them have signed deals ahead of the 2023 season. As a reminder, you can read up on these 50 players, and learn how they were ranked here.
Now, to the good stuff. Below you'll find our tracker, complete with the player, their rank, their last team, and their new team.
