Albert Almora was non-tendered by the Cubs. Add him to the list of potential outfielders.

All the non tenders so far Amora, Schwarber, Rosario, Mazara and Rodon would upgrade this roster.

How was Rodon not picked up via trade before being non tendered?
Wow. You would think Bloom would have been all over that?

I was under the impression they wanted to keep him in RF. Maybe I'm wrong, but yeah, shifting him is really the only way to make any of these work without shipping our Benintendi |

Mazara has never posted a better-than-league-average wRC+. He had all kinds of promise but when has he ever delivered on it? Schwarber terrifies me given how awful he was this year, and like Rosario necessitates further roster moves to make room for him. I don't see a fit for any of these guys so far except maybe Almora as a 4th OF. |

I would be all in for Almora. None of the rest would work on this team.

I don’t understand the fascination with Almora. What am I missing?

I don’t understand the fascination with Almora. What am I missing? He can play CF. That's about it. I suppose you could make the argument he has ~100 wRC+ upside based on his 2016-2017 seasons but that was a while ago now. The CF ability though could make him a 4th OF fit but I don't think anyone is enamored with him as a full-time option. |

Archie Bradley just got non tendered.
I wouldn’t mind him and Alberto
Add Knebel to my list

David Dahl. I know he’s always banged up, but really nice upside. Underwent surgery on his right shoulder in September, but should be ready for spring training.

Just can’t stay healthy. But I agree he’s worth taking a look at. He has the highest upside and floor if health is assumed. Schwarber as depth for 1B wouldn’t be bad either. He’s still not old. Mazara has never even had one good season. Bradley is a solid reliever. Rodon would be interesting if he was willing to come out of the pen. |

Not just Almora but DeShields non-tendered, joining Jake Marisnick as options for the glove-first RHH 4th OFer they need. I like DeShields unless they have a magic mojo for Almora's bat, which is a possibility.
Johan Camargo agrees with the Braves, so that would have to be a trade.
Of the three MI non-tendered, Hanser Alberto doesn't play SS and doesn't compare to Hernandez at 2B, Danny Santana hits better from the left side, and Greg Garcia hits lefty, period. So no backup SS who could play 3B against LHP, like Camargo.

Someone is wrong somewhere how can u trade a player after being nontendered, so whoever claimed he was being non tendered was incorrect |

Career LF, and the last two years at ages 30 and 31, just an average one. Not a fit. |
