As the calendar flips to February, the MLB free-agent market has been whittled down considerably. But there are still a handful of impact players available and plenty of teams with roster holes to fill before Opening Day.

Alex Bregman, Pete Alonso and Jack Flaherty represent the best of the remaining market, but there are plenty of useful arms and capable platoon and bench players still looking for a new home.

Here, we've highlighted the top available options at each position to serve as an inventory of sorts for teams that still aren't done with their winter shopping list.

Who will be the next name crossed off the list of remaining free agents?

Catcher

No. 1 Option: James McCann (Age: 34)

Stats: 65 G, 94 OPS+, .234/.279/.388, 17 XBH (8 HR), 31 RBI, 0.8 WAR

McCann failed to live up to the four-year, $40.6 million contract he signed last time he hit the open market, but he has been a serviceable backup to Adley Rutschman in Baltimore the last two seasons with 1.3 WAR in 134 games. The 2019 All-Star should catch on somewhere as a backup on a one-year deal.

No. 2 Option: Yasmani Grandal (Age: 36)

Stats: 72 G, 95 OPS+, .228/.304/.400, 19 XBH (9 HR), 27 RBI, 0.6 WAR

Grandal is not the All-Star catcher he was in his prime, but he is still a solid part-time option with some pop. He hit .302/.429/.558 with 10 extra-base hits in 107 plate appearances after the All-Star break last year, so he still has something left in the tank for teams looking to add experienced depth behind the plate.

Others of Note: Yan Gomes, Luke Maile

First Base

No. 1 Option: Pete Alonso (Age: 30)

Stats: 162 G, 123 OPS+, .240/.329/.459, 65 XBH (34 HR), 88 RBI, 2.6 WAR

Despite his elite power, Alonso has not found the robust market he was expecting this offseason. It now looks like he made a costly mistake not accepting a seven-year, $158 million extension offer during the 2023 season. With that said, for teams still looking to add an impact run producer, he is the best option by a landslide.

No. 2 Option: Anthony Rizzo (Age: 35)

Stats: 92 G, 81 OPS+, .228/.301/.335, 20 XBH (8 HR), 35 RBI, 0.2 WAR

While injuries have limited Rizzo to 191 games and 0.6 WAR over the past two seasons, he is not far removed from posting a 127 OPS+ and slugging 32 home runs during the 2022 season. With a clean bill of health, he is still capable of providing some pop while serving as a respected veteran voice in the clubhouse.

Others of Note: Ty France, Joey Gallo, José Abreu, Yuli Gurriel, Connor Joe, Jared Walsh

Second Base

No. 1 Option: Jose Iglesias (Age: 35)

Stats: 85 G, 137 OPS+, .337/.381/.448, 21 XBH (4 HR), 26 RBI, 3.1 WAR

After not appearing in a big league game in 2023, Iglesias settled for a minor league deal last offseason. He was called up from Triple-A on May 31 and ended up ranking second on the Mets roster with 3.1 WAR in only 85 games. A bloated .382 BABIP points to some likely regression, but his contact skills and steady defense are valuable.

No. 2 Option: Brendan Rodgers (Age: 28)

Stats: 135 G, 94 OPS+, .267/.314/.407, 43 XBH (13 HR), 54 RBI, 1.1 WAR

The No. 3 overall pick in the 2015 draft and a top prospect throughout his time in the minors, Rodgers never quite lived up to the hype over six seasons in Colorado before he was non-tendered at the start of the offseason. The 2022 NL Gold Glove winner has a solid glove and double-digit home run power, and he is also younger than most free agents.

Others of Note: Enrique Hernández, Whit Merrifield, Nicky Lopez, Brandon Drury

Third Base

No. 1 Option: Alex Bregman (Age: 30)

Stats: 145 G, 118 OPS+, .260/.315/.453, 58 XBH (26 HR), 75 RBI, 4.1 WAR

With three straight 4-WAR seasons, Bregman has been a consistent star-caliber performer for the Astros, even if he has never come close to duplicating his huge 2019 numbers. A willingness to shift to second base adds to his list of potential suitors, while a reunion with the Astros is still not out of the question.

No. 2 Option: Yoán Moncada (Age: 29)

Stats: 12 G, 117 OPS+, .275/.356/.400, 4 XBH (0 HR), 0 RBI, 0.3 WAR

Injuries have limited Moncada to 104 games over the past two seasons, and his star has faded considerably since he logged a 4.0-WAR season in 2021. He has hit a respectable .262/.311/.422 for a 101 OPS+ in 402 plate appearances when he has taken the field the last two years, making him an appealing buy-low flier with some upside.

Others Of Note: Luis Urías, Miguel Sano, Nick Senzel

Shortstop

No. 1 Option: Paul DeJong (Age: 31)

Stats: 139 G, 97 OPS+, .227/.276/.427, 41 XBH (24 HR), 56 RBI, 0.9 WAR

DeJong quietly had a nice 2024 season, opening the year as the starting shortstop for the White Sox before joining the Royals at the deadline and seeing regular action at the hot corner for their playoff push. With 20-homer power and a solid glove on the left side of the infield, he fits as a quality reserve or low-level starter.

No. 2 Option: Nick Ahmed (Age: 34)

Stats: 71 G, 62 OPS+, .229/.267/.295, 9 XBH (2 HR), 17 RBI, -0.3 WAR

Ahmed suited up for 60 percent of the NL West last season, playing a combined 71 games for the Giants, Dodgers and Padres. The two-time Gold Glove winner is more or less a glove-only player at this point and will likely have to settle for a minor league contract, but don't be surprised if he breaks camp with a MLB bench spot.

Others Of Note: Nicky Lopez

Corner Outfield

No. 1 Option: Randal Grichuk (Age: 33)

Stats: 106 G, 140 OPS+, .291/.348/.528, 34 XBH (12 HR), 46 RBI, 2.2 WAR

Grichuk wore out left-handed pitching last season, batting .319/.386/.528 with six home runs and 32 RBI in 184 plate appearances with a southpaw on the mound. The 11-year veteran has quietly slugged 203 home runs in his career. He remains a valuable platoon option for teams in need of right-handed power.

No. 2 Option: Mark Canha (Age: 35)

Stats: 125 G, 99 OPS+, .242/.344/.346, 27 XBH (7 HR), 42 RBI, 0.6 WAR

With solid on-base skills and the defensive versatility to handle first base and both corner outfield spots, Canha is a useful veteran piece. He hit .288 with a .376 on-base percentage and 107 OPS+ in 85 plate appearances for the Giants after coming over in a deal with the Tigers at the trade deadline.

Others Of Note: Alex Verdugo, Jason Heyward, Ramón Laureano, Tommy Pham, David Peralta, Adam Duvall, Robbie Grossman, Manuel Margot, Eddie Rosario

Center Field

Best Option: Harrison Bader (Age: 30)

Stats: 143 G, 86 OPS+, .236/.284/.373, 31 XBH (12 HR), 51 RBI, 0.9 WAR

Bader landed a one-year, $10.5 million deal from the Mets in free agency last offseason, and he once again provided a solid mix of power (12 HR), speed (17 SB) and defense (7.7 DEF) while logging a career-high 437 plate appearances. He can be a terrific fourth outfielder for a contending team or a solid everyday center fielder.

No. 2 Option: Michael A. Taylor (Age: 33)

Stats: 113 G, 52 OPS+, .193/.253/.290, 15 XBH (5 HR), 21 RBI, 0.9 WAR

A non-factor at the plate last season following a career-high 21 home runs in 2023, Taylor remains an elite defensive center fielder. His 12 Defensive Runs Saved trailed only Jarren Duran (17 DRS) and Daulton Varsho (16 DRS) among all center fielders, and he did that in only 113 games. There is still significant value in his glove.

Others Of Note: Travis Jankowski

Designated Hitter

No. 1 Option: Justin Turner (Age: 40)

Stats: 139 G, 114 OPS+, .259/.354/.383, 35 XBH (11 HR), 55 RBI, 1.5 WAR

It's a coin toss which of these veterans deserves to be in the No. 1 spot among designated hitters, but Turner gets the slight edge since he showed he can still absorb some innings defensively with 40 starts at first base in 2024. He posted a 128 OPS+ with five home runs and 24 RBI in 48 games with the Mariners after the Blue Jays shipped him out at the trade deadline.

No. 2 Option: J.D. Martinez (Age: 37)

Stats: 120 G, 106 OPS+, .235/.320/.406, 41 XBH (16 HR), 69 RBI, 0.5 WAR

Following a 33-homer, 103-RBI season with the Dodgers in 2023, Martinez took a significant step backward both in terms of surface-level numbers and batted-ball metrics, with his average exit velocity (93.4 to 91.0 mph) and hard-hit rate (55.1 to 46.1 percent) both declining. On a positive note, he hit .296/.371/.584 over 145 plate appearances with runners in scoring position.

Others Of Note: Rowdy Tellez, Gavin Sheets, Matt Carpenter, Daniel Vogelbach

Right-Handed Starting Pitcher

No. 1 Option: Jack Flaherty (Age: 29)

Stats: 28 GS, 13-7, 3.17 ERA (3.47 FIP), 1.07 WHIP, 194 K, 162.0 IP, 3.1 WAR

Flaherty settled for a one-year, $14 million deal from the Tigers last offseason and responded with his best performance since he finished fourth in 2019 NL Cy Young voting. His past injury issues and inconsistency, coupled with a shaky postseason has seemingly undercut his market. With that said, he is far and away the best available starter left in free agency if he can even come close to his 2024 numbers.

No. 2 Option: Nick Pivetta (Age: 31)

Stats: 26 GS, 6-12, 4.14 ERA (4.07 FIP), 1.13 WHIP, 172 K, 145.2 IP, 1.8 WAR

Pivetta might end up regretting not accepting the one-year, $21.05 million qualifying offer from the Red Sox that he rejected at the start of the offseason. He fits best as a No. 3 or No. 4 starter on a contender, but he does offer a bit more upside thanks to his swing-and-miss stuff after racking up 705 strikeouts in 623 innings over the past four seasons.

No. 3 Option: Kyle Gibson (Age: 37)

Stats: 30 GS, 8-8, 4.24 ERA (4.42 FIP), 1.35 WHIP, 151 K, 169.2 IP, 0.9 WAR

Gibson is a durable veteran workhorse who has made at least 29 starts and tossed at least 150 innings every year since 2017 with the exception of the shortened 2020 season. With a 99 ERA+ in 169.2 innings last year, he was the definition of a league-average starter, and he would be an upgrade at the back of the rotation for a long list of teams.

Others Of Note: Lance Lynn, Cal Quantrill, Spencer Turnbull, Jakob Junis, Mike Clevinger, Chris Flexen

Left-Handed Starting Pitcher

No. 1 Option: Andrew Heaney (Age: 33)

Stats: 31 GS, 5-14, 4.28 ERA (4.04 FIP), 1.25 WHIP, 159 K, 160.0 IP, 0.8 WAR

Considering the ever-climbing cost of starting pitching, Heaney ended up providing solid value on the two-year, $25 million deal he signed last time he hit the open market. He logged a 4.22 ERA with 310 strikeouts in 307.1 innings over the life of that contract, and he should be available at a similar price once again.

No. 2 Option: Jose Quintana (Age: 36)

Stats: 31 GS, 10-10, 3.75 ERA (4.56 FIP), 1.25 WHIP, 135 K, 170.1 IP, 2.5 WAR

Quintana logged a 0.74 ERA and 0.99 WHIP in 36.1 innings over his final six starts last season, capping off a strong second year with the Mets following an injury-shortened 2023 campaign. His age will likely limit him to a short-term deal, but he can still be a difference-making addition to a team's rotation.

No. 3 Option: John Means (Age: 31)

Stats: 4 GS, 2-0, 2.61 ERA (3.31 FIP), 0.87 WHIP, 16 K, 20.2 IP, 0.7 WAR

Means underwent Tommy John surgery on June 3 and is expected to miss the bulk of the 2025 season, but he still holds appeal as a stash of sorts on a two-year deal. The two-year, $17.5 million deal that Brandon Woodruff signed with the Brewers last offseason before spending all of 2024 recovering from an injury could serve as a loose framework for his contract.

Others Of Note: Patrick Corbin, Marco Gonzales

Note: While he is technically a free agent, we are operating under the assumption that Clayton Kershaw will either re-sign with the Dodgers or retire.

Right-Handed Relief Pitcher

No. 1 Option: David Robertson (Age: 39)

Stats: 68 G, 34 HLD, 3.00 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, 12.4 K/9, 1.7 WAR

Robertson ranks second among active pitchers with 861 career appearances, and he is showing no signs of slowing down while inching closer to 40 years old. His 33.3 percent strikeout rate last season was his highest since 2017, and he brings a wealth of high-leverage and postseason experience.

No. 2 Option: Kenley Jansen (Age: 37)

Stats: 54 G, 27 SV, 3.29 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, 10.2 K/9, 1.3 WAR

Jansen had some preliminary talks with the Mets, but his goal to reach 500 career saves "muddied the match," and they instead opted to re-sign Ryne Stanek. He is sitting on 447 career saves after closing games for the Red Sox the last two seasons, which is good for fourth on the all-time list.

No. 3 Option: Kyle Finnegan (Age: 33)

Stats: 65 G, 38 SV, 3.68 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, 8.5 K/9, 0.9 WAR

The Nationals made the surprise decision to non-tender Finnegan after he was an All-Star in 2024, though it's worth mentioning he had a 5.79 ERA and 1.89 WHIP in 24 appearances during the second half. He could still get a chance to close games on a rebuilding team, or opt to settle into a setup role on a contender.

Others of Note: Adam Ottavino, Buck Farmer, Hunter Strickland, Dylan Floro, Scott Barlow, John Brebbia, Héctor Neris, Joe Kelly, Phil Maton, Kendall Graveman

Left-Handed Relief Pitcher

No. 1 Option: Danny Coulombe (Age: 35)

Stats: 33 G, 13 HLD, 2.12 ERA, 0.67 WHIP, 9.7 K/9, 0.9 WAR

The Orioles declined a $4 million club option on Coulombe following a strong 2024 season, and now that A.J. Minter has signed with the Mets, he represents the best lefty reliever on the market. He also logged a 2.81 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 10.2 K/9 in 61 appearances in 2023, so he has a solid foundation of recent success.

No. 2 Option: Ryan Yarbrough (Age: 33)

Stats: 44 G, 1 HLD, 3.19 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, 5.9 K/9, 1.2 WAR

Yarbrough is a valuable multi-inning weapon who can fill a spot at the back of the rotation or as a long reliever out of the bullpen. He recorded more than three outs in 34 of his 44 appearances last season while limiting left-handed hitters to a paltry .176/.211/.387 line over 145 plate appearances.

No. 3 Option: Tim Hill (Age: 34)

Stats: 62 G, 4 HLD, 3.36 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, 4.2 K/9, 0.5 WAR

Hill went from being released by the lowly White Sox in June to appearing in 10 of 14 playoff games for the Yankees in October, turning around his season with a 2.05 ERA in 35 appearances after he was plucked from the scrapheap on June 20. The soft-tossing sinkerballer led all qualified relievers with a 68.2 percent groundball rate.
