31. Jason Kubel, Outfielder and Designated Hitter
Status: Signed by the Minnesota Twins to a minor-league deal with an invitation to spring training.
Kubel is only a year removed from launching 30 home runs with Arizona. To go from 30 to five home runs over the span of a season is obviously an extreme drop off, but Kubel has been steady enough of a contributor over the course of his career to believe that last year’s power outage was just an aberration. Teams in need of a left-handed DH may be well served by looking at Kubel.
