This winter's MLB free-agent class offers little in the way of impact players. As a result, we could see unusually high movement among the game's biggest names who are still under contract.

With baseball winter meetings a little less than a month away, a number of star players are already rumored in potential blockbuster deals.

This offseason may be unusual in that the trade market could net more impact moves than free agency. What might those moves be?

How do you advise your client to make the best possible decision?

You prepare a detailed report for him, taking these factors into account:

Over the past week, Bleacher Report has been going position by position and rounding up the top 100 players available in free agency and trades in the 2016-2017 MLB offseason.

Now it's time to put them all in one basket.

Each player was subjected to a scoring system that weighed his desirability in terms of talent, durability and value. Position players and starting pitchers could get as many as 100 points. Relief pitchers could get as many as 85 points.

Bleacher Report's stroll through the top 100 players available in the 2016-17 MLB offseason now heads to the outfield.

The 2016-17 MLB offseason is underway, as another thrilling postseason was capped off by the Chicago Cubs besting the Cleveland Indians in a seven-game World Series for the ages.

There will be time to reflect on the 2016 season in the months ahead, but there is no rest for MLB teams in their pursuit of a title, and the offseason work is already underway.

All 30 teams have different to-do lists heading into the winter, as each team looks to shore up its roster for a run of its own in 2017.

After checking in on catchers and corner infielders, Bleacher Report's review of the top 100 players available in the 2016-17 MLB offseason now moves to the middle of the infield.

Only the Chicago Cubs deserve to look back onto the 2016 Major League Baseball season. For every other organization, it is now time to look forward.

That made the timing of Saturday's Fall Stars Game, the showcase of the Arizona Fall League's best players, perfect.

And no, the Cubs' Kyle Schwarber did not play in the game, though he played two Arizona Fall League games in order to get ready for the World Series.

Bleacher Report's look at the top 100 players available for the 2016-2017 MLB offseason got started with the top 15 corner infielders. Now come the top 10 catchers.
