It's time once again for an updated look at where all 30 MLB teams stand this offseason, as we are officially one month from the start of spring training.
These rankings were last updated on Dec. 31, so any transactions that have taken place between then and now were factored into the changes you'll see in the following rankings.
Notable additions during that span include: Justin Upton (DET), Chris Davis (BAL), Alex Gordon (KC), Wei-Yin Chen (MIA), Ian Kennedy (KC), Ben Revere (WAS), Drew Storen (TOR), Gerardo Parra (COL), Seung-hwan Oh (STL), Alexei Ramirez (SD), Chris Carter (MIL), Edwin Jackson (MIA), Kelly Johnson (ATL) and Carlos Villanueva (SD)
As with any offseason power rankings, these are not simply meant to be a prediction for the year ahead, but instead a look at how teams would stack up with the rosters they currently have if the season were to start today.
Expect plenty more shuffling over the final month, with a number of key free agents still searching for a new home.
That includes Yoenis Cespedes, Yovani Gallardo, Ian Desmond, Dexter Fowler, Howie Kendrick and Tyler Clippard.
Just something worth keeping in mind when considering where your favorite team falls in the following rankings.
Note: This time around we've included a projected 25-man Opening Day roster for each team. The roster projections from Roster Resource served as an invaluable starting point in this exercise, though changes were made based on my own opinions.
In the following projected rosters, (R) indicates a player with rookie eligibility remaining, while a bolded player is a newcomer to the team.
