Who do you think is the best remaining free agent and where do you think they will end up and why?

Based on pure stuff, I went with Ben Sheets. I know he comes with a huge injury risk but on a two year deal, I find him to be the best guy to really change a team's pitching staff and team. Why the Brewers aren't re-signing this guy is beyond me. I hope the Rangers get him.

Pitching wise, I'd take Sheets or Oliver Perez. It's hard to choose there because they both have their faults. Sheets is never healthy and Perez is 50/50.
I wouldn't mind if the Astros brought in either one, but although they REALLY need a SP, ownership has already said they won't be adding another free agent SP.
Drayton McClane is a cheap bastard.
Juan Cruz is the best player available compared to what else is available in the middle relief market. I'm surprised he doesn't have more suitors

He's a Type A free agent and will command a high price tag. Only reason I can see why teams are balking at the chance to get him but I agree, he is the best available reliever.
I went with Manny with LAD or NYY because no one else is willing to give up the $. The Dodgers obviously want him, and the Yankees are already on a roll for signing the top free agents.
He is the best, but Ben Sheets is up there too. I am surprised that Sheets has gotten little, to no coverage this whole off season. Why do you think that is? He was a good pitcher (3.09 ERA) playing for a playoff team (they get more coverage), with a good career (3.72 ERA). The only thing bringing him down is the injury thing. He will definitely be a steal for whoever gets him. Don't have any idea who he'll sign with.
