Next Years FA List:

C:Jonathan Lucroy(32)
C:Matt Wieters(31)
1B:Edwin Encarnacion(34)
1B:Brandon Moss(33)
2B:Chase Utley(38)
2B:Martin Prado(33)
3B:Adrian Beltre(38)
3B:Justin Turner(32)
SS:Erick Aybar(33)
SS:Alexei Ramirez(35)
LF:Matt Holliday(37)
LF:Colby Rasmus(30)
CF:Carlos Gomez(31)
CF:Cameron Maybin(30)
RF:Jose Bautista(36)
RF:Josh Reddick(30)

Thats a piss poor market. I dont think I would want anyone on even a somewhat long term deal besides Gomez, and he will even be 31.

If we are going to win soon, then we have to start signing guys now, and Cespedes would be a great get as long as we dont go over 4 years. 4/85 is a deal that I think is fair.

That it is. And it's even worse than you have listed because Lucroy isn't a FA till after 2017, he has a 2017 team option.

Turner is the only guy I would consider remotely interesting, and even that would depend on this season and how Riley performs. Maybe Bautista since he would be a short term deal due to age.

Cespedes would indeed make alot of sense on a 4 year deal.

That list does suck but we need a catcher pretty bad. I wouldn't be too disappointed with either of those, given we don't pay them out the arse for old and mediocre.

Wieters will be the catcher for the 2017 season as long as he stays healthy. Book it.

He lives in the Buckhead area and has openly talked about his interest and intent in playing in Atlanta to be close to his family.

Saw him in the Home Depot in Phenix City last week. He's building a house here. Wouldn't mind having him if he can continue the momentum he had in the playoffs.
