Free Agent Odds

Bovada (www.Bovada.lv) just posted odds on which teams are likely to sign which high quality free agents:

One thing I’ve wondered is if a team will sign Bryce Harper to play first base? After being good most of his career, he had a terrible year in the outfield in 2018. I wonder if he lost a step due to the horrific leg injury he suffered in 2017?

A team like the Yankees doesn’t need him in the outfield, but he’s probably much better than any option the Yankees have at first base. I suspect his defense would be really good there, and it might keep him healthier so his bat stays in the lineup. Harper was willing to play first base for the Nationals in 2018, so it would be a good way of fitting him on a team that doesn’t need an outfielder, but could use a big bat.
