MLB insider estimates contract Dansby Swanson could land as free agent

The shortstop market is going to be an interesting one to watch this offseason.

After hitting free agency last season, Carlos Correa is likely to be available again this offseason. Xander Bogaerts likewise is expected to opt out of his contract and become a free agent, while Trea Turner also is set to become available.

They’ll represent the top options at the position, but Dansby Swanson is a quality option for teams with a need at the position who are willing to spend but don't want to break that bank. He can provide quality defense and a bat with some pop, but his price tag should come in well under what someone like Correa will fetch.
