Non-Tender Candidates

By Tim Dierkes | October 29, 2012 at 4:10pm CDT

By my count, 213 players are currently arbitration eligible.  More than 70 of those can be considered non-tender candidates.  The deadline for teams to decide is November 30th.  Non-tendering a player makes him a free agent.  Below is my subjective list of non-tender candidates.  Please note that not all of them will actually be non-tendered.  Click here for MLBTR's projected salaries for these players, if they are tendered contracts.

    Scott Atchison? Really? Yes.. He is 36YO and had that dreaded “strain” of the UCL over the summer, but came back fine.. There couldn’t have been more than 4-5 relievers in the AL with better numbers than him who pitched as many games and he only made 500k

    Late edit:

    Just noticed Rich Hill is on this list also. He will get tendered also. Just came back from TJ and had his usual arm troubles, but was the 1st in line LH specialist as always when he was healthy. His refined delivery is absolute murder on lefty batters, just hard on his arm. I don’t see him getting non tendered either when he “only” made 725k last year.

        Yeah.. Like since they were this bad before. Fan of them since the early 60’s 🙂

        Isn’t that what a “fan” is? You’d prefer he just acts like the Sox don’t exist until they’re in the playoffs again? That’s not what being a fan is about.

    Paul Janish will stay in Atlanta I believe, but if he can’t hit .200 he won’t last long.

    I refuse to believe that Andino will be non-tendered. I think that would be a huge mistake, if the O’s decided to let him go. However, I will root for him for whatever teams that he winds up playing for in 2013. I do enjoy watching him.

      Think ur Orioles need to figure out a way to keep Reynolds moreso than AAAA retread Andino. he may have had a fair season, but is it really worth offering arbitration to a below average utility guy, who has little power, poor glove and strikes out 30% of the time with poor plate discipline?

      Remember him from the Marlins, he really wasn’t anything special and the guy made 1.3m.. get another guy just like him from the scrap heap.. Billy Hall, Nate Spears (DFA’d few days back) that will be everywhere over the next few weeks, or sign a better utility person altogether.

    Boesch could really benefit from a change of scenery I think. Not sure why he fell apart this year.

    You really think Brian Wilson will be non-tendered. I can’t stand him or the Giants, but I find it hard to believe they would just cut him loose seeing as he is a three time All Star closer..

      He’s likely to be non-tendered because he’ll get paid too much through arbitration. The idea is to non-tender him and resign him to an incentive-laden contract since he’s coming off his 2nd TJ surgery of his career. If the Giants straight up cut him though, I would be thoroughly surprised.

    No way Sam Fuld is non-tendered. Not a chance.

    I would’ve thought Hunter Pence would be on this list just for the fact that it is said that he is to be due around $13 million through arbitration. He had a horrible year (statistically, since he’s probably not in a bad mood about winning the World Series) and I’d expect the Giants would try to sign him to a contract that more reflects that.

    Also, you could probably take Burriss off the list because Giants fans aren’t lucky enough to win a World Series AND remove the chance of him getting playing time on the team in the future.

      everyone has said this about Pence but do people read stats or assume them because look at those RBI’s and runs scored that dont lie he is a run making machine?

    Really surprised by all the ATL pitchers- trade bait left out in the water too long?

    I don’t see the Bucs non-tendering Sanchez as they won’t find a better RH platoon option anywhere – and if they plan on using Jones, they need a RH platoon partner. Gaby was OK with Bucs – for the season Bucs were 24th in offense at 1b, but if you cut out McGehee/Clement and whatever other flotsam used there, Jones/Sanchez alone would project to 14th in MLB, a good upgrade. And Sanchez’s defense is superb.

    Charlie Morton will become a star elsewhere.

    John Dewan, author of The Fielding Bible, last week declared Seattle shortstop Brendan Ryan “the best defender in baseball.” Ryan was valued at $7.7 million this season based on his WAR of 1.7. I highly doubt the defensive-minded Mariners will non-tender Ryan as the parties work off Ryan’s modest 2012 salary of $1.75 million.
