Per Eddie Bajek's latest Elias rankings, the following players are eligible for free agency after the season and are teetering on the borderline of Type A and B status:
- Mark DeRosa
- Octavio Dotel
- Chone Figgins
- Brandon Lyon
- Placido Polanco
Figgins projects as a Type A at the moment, while the other four are currently Bs. The September performance of these players could push them in either direction. It's hard to say which will be offered arbitration, though Figgins is a lock.
