Breaking News: Potential Black Friday Bargains in MLB Free Agency, Including Player Who Struggled in 2025
In a whirlwind of post-Thanksgiving excitement, MLB fans are eager to uncover the next hidden gems in free agency. As teams look to maximize their value, here are four players who could offer a significant impact at a bargain price.
1. Right-handed pitcher Tyler Kinley: At 35 years old, Kinley wrapped up the season with an impressive performance, boasting a 0.72 ERA in his final 24 games with the Braves. His ability to limit exit velocity and showcase top-notch breaking balls make him a valuable asset, especially away from Colorado’s high altitude. With a similar style to Brewers’ Nick Mears, Kinley is primed to excel in a middle relief role on a potential one-year deal.
2. Second baseman Brendan Rodgers: Despite a challenging 2025 season, Rodgers has the potential for a rebound. With a batting average of .191 and limited contributions in key offensive categories, Rodgers may fly under the radar for teams seeking infield depth. A change of scenery could reignite his performance and provide a team with a cost-effective solution at second base.
Stay tuned as the MLB offseason unfolds, offering opportunities for savvy teams to secure impactful players at discounted rates. Don’t miss out on these potential Black Friday-level bargains that could shape the upcoming season.
