Four weeks into the MLB offseason, most of the major free agents out on the market are currently unsigned.
Aaron Judge, Trea Turner, Xander Bogaerts, Dansby Swanson, Carlos Correa, and Willson Contreras lead a stacked class of free agent stars who may end up finding new homes this offseason.
Judge is the top free agent available, but other stars are sure to garner some large paychecks with certain teams.
Turner might be a close second to Judge in terms of top talent on the market as of now.
On Twitter, Gary Sheffield Jr. offered some praise to Turner, saying that he is “the best player on the market other than Aaron Judge.”
Trea Turner is the best player on the market other than Aaron Judge so if you’re asking which shortstop I want, there’s your answer.

MLB Analyst Praises Turner
With Winter Meetings fast approaching, we’ll soon start to see some of the marquee players out on the market sign with teams.
Where they will go is up to interpretation at this moment.
But aside from Judge, Turner might be the best free agent out there.
With so many premier shortstops on the market, that position has become a hot commodity for several teams.
Turner could fit with almost any team that is looking to land a shortstop this offseason.
The Philadelphia Phillies could be a fit for the speedy shortstop after having let Jean Segura walk.
But the San Francisco Giants, Boston Red Sox, and other ballclubs could find themselves in the mix.
Next week marks the beginning of Winter Meetings, which should spur some movement within both the trade and free agent markets.
