17. Eduardo Nuñez

Position: UTIL | Age: 31

Current Team: Red Sox | Best Fit: Red Sox

2017 Stats: .313 BA, .801 OPS, 12 HR, 58 RBI, 24 SB

Nunez was excellent for the Red Sox after a July trade from the Giants—batting .321 with an .892 OPS and eight homers, in just 38 games—but he's really been a valuable utilityman for several years now. Boston might have wanted him back anyway, but now that knee surgery will sideline Dustin Pedroia through at least late May he's an even stronger fit.
