As mentioned, these are the only two position players with a fighting shot at a nine-figure deal. Despite being notably older, Suzuki ranks over Chisholm for his offensive consistency. The Japanese outfielder has tallied at least 580 plate appearances with an adjusted OPS 30% above league average in each of the past three seasons. Suzuki hits the ball hard, in the air, very often. That’s a crucial, repeatable skill. He’s also a better athlete and outfielder than you might expect — Team Japan had him playing center in the WBC — even if those skills will decline over time.
