The Most Likely Player from Each MLB Team to Be Traded This Offseason

We've already spent a good deal of time looking at the upcoming free-agent market, breaking down the top players at each position and exploring potential fits on a team-by-team basis.

However, this year's trade market could prove to be just as interesting.

If last year's winter meetings proved anything, it's to expect the unexpected when it comes to the offseason trade market, as today's crop of general managers are a different level of aggressive entirely.

The most likely star-caliber players to be dealt this winter appear to be a pair of closers in Aroldis Chapman and Craig Kimbrel, but there is no shortage of intrigue behind them.

Yasiel Puig could be made available by the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Chicago Cubs have a middle infield abundance to potentially trade from and the San Diego Padres and Cleveland Indians both have more than one starting pitcher expected to be dangled.

With all of that in mind, what follows is a look at the most likely player to be traded from each MLB team this offseason.

The selections were made based on a combination of rumors, team needs, projected arbitration figures and team outlook for the 2016 season and beyond.
