1. Josh Donaldson
Donaldson’s short time with the Indians included just 16 games, as he hit a solid .280 with three homers and seven runs batted in, and in his time at third base played just fine at the position.
The former AL MVP made $23 million this past season with the Blue Jays, and while at 32 years old he won’t get that type of deal like of the one he got from Toronto (a one-year deal worth $23 million), he showed enough in his short time with the Tribe where he should still be able to cash in this offseason.
It’s going to be very tough unless the Indians open their pocketbooks to get Donaldson back, and you can expect to see a team out there that needs help at 3B to give him a 2-3 year deal worth somewhere between $7-10 million per season.
Early Guess – Donaldson was a player who was supposed to be a big asset in the series with the Astros, and he put up one hit over the three games. It was a nice one month relationship, but he’ll be elsewhere in 2019.
