We’re already two weeks into December, and Nick Swisher still doesn’t have a home.
The former New York Yankees right fielder is still one of the top free agents out on the market, and people have been wondering where he might sign.
Swisher’s market has been slow to develop, but I think that’s because of Josh Hamilton.
I think once teams knew where Hamilton was going, they could turn their attention to guys like Swisher and Michael Bourn.
With the Los Angeles Angels wrapping up their five-year, $125 million deal for Hamilton, Swisher’s phone is likely about to be ringing off the hook with offers.
Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News tweeted that Swisher is set to visit multiple teams next week in person.
As expected, Josh Hamilton’s signing is setting the Nick Swisher market in motion. Swisher will visit multiple teams in person next week.
