"Kyle Schwarber: The bellwether of the class. Schwarber's market is healthy. He's going to get years, and he's going to get AAV, and at this point, he might be the likeliest of the big free agents to sign first," MLB reporter Jeff Passan posted on Threads. "Unclear if something gets done before the meetings, but I'd be surprised if they end and he doesn't have a team."
The Phillies are seen as a favorite to land Schwarber, Passan said. The slugger has played for Philadelphia , the Boston Red Sox, Washington Nationals and Chicago Cubs in his lengthy MLB career.
Time will tell if the Giants can find a way to land Schwarber. San Francisco is also looking for some pitching help this offseason, per MLB Rumors, as well as a second baseman.
