Projected Type B Free Agents

By Tim Dierkes | October 7, 2009 at 1:37pm CDT

All the data is in for Eddie Bajek's Elias Ranking projections.  There may be a few errors to clean up but we'll take a look at the tentative rankings anyway.  The projected Type B free agents (asterisk denotes an option):

Garret Anderson
Rod Barajas
Erik Bedard
Joe Beimel
Ron Belliard
Adrian Beltre
Doug Brocail*
Marlon Byrd
Kiko Calero
Mike Cameron
Carl Crawford*
Doug Davis
Carlos Delgado
Justin Duchscherer
Scott Eyre
Pedro Feliz*
Chone Figgins
Jon Garland*
Jerry Hairston Jr.
Rich Harden
Ramon Hernandez*
Bob Howry
Aubrey Huff
Nick Johnson
Randy Johnson
Reed Johnson
Jason Kendall
Adam LaRoche
Braden Looper*
Brandon Lyon
Jason Marquis
Hideki Matsui
Melvin Mora*
Guillermo Mota
Xavier Nady
Will Ohman*
Miguel Olivo*
Vicente Padilla*
Chan Ho Park
Carl Pavano
Andy Pettitte
Joel Pineiro
Fernando Rodney
Ivan Rodriguez
Brian Schneider
Gary Sheffield
Brian Shouse*
Russ Springer
Jason Varitek*
Tim Wakefield*
Dave Weathers*
Brandon Webb*
Randy Winn
Gregg Zaun*

The biggest beneficiary of Type B status is Figgins, who was due an arbitration offer from the Angels whether he's A or B.  If his B ranking holds up, he'll be more attractive to other teams since he won't cost a draft pick.  Byrd, Nick Johnson, Marquis, Pavano, Pineiro, and Rodney seem like strong candidates to be offered arbitration.

When a Type B free agent is offered arbitration, turns it down, and signs elsewhere, the losing team does get one draft pick.  The pick does not come from the signing team; it is instead inserted into a supplemental round.  The Reds (Jeremy Affeldt), Rangers (Milton Bradley), Diamondbacks (Brandon Lyon), Twins (Dennys Reyes), Brewers (Brian Shouse), and Angels (Jon Garland) were compensated with draft picks for Type B losses last year.
