5. Seiya Suzuki

Suzuki lands pretty high on the list for a few difference reasons. At only 26 years old the Japanese slugger had another monster year in the NPO in 2021. He slashed .319/.436/.640 with 38 home runs over 133 games. His defense is above average as well in the outfield, a position of need, making him even more enticing. Now, in a typical ranking system, he would be bellow other OF options but one of the main factors in landing this high is the offseason plan. Suzuki is only expected to get a 4-5 year deal at $11-13 million per year, making him quite affordable.

If the Texas Rangers were to successfully land two other high priced targets this year, his affordable contact would be must have.
