The concept of talent cores and competitive windows has been discussed a lot of late, with the Braves' run of extensions to young players and the Padres selling the farm for Juan Soto and Josh Bell. So I used this as inspiration for a new way to rank talent by teams' cores.
The rules are simple: Only players under control this year, next year, and 2024 can count. If a player has an opt out they are likely to exercise after this year or next, they don't count, such as Xander Bogaerts, Jacob deGrom and Carlos Correa.
