### **Here’s all the former Cardinals on the free agent market**

I’ve pulled together a list of all the former [Cardinals](https://www.mlb.com/cardinals/)
I could find that have hit the free agent market – former big leaguers and farmhands.
I’ll update this as the off-season goes along with where players have signed and
add players as things happen (non-tenders, DFA, etc).

With each player, you’ll find their position and the level they were granted free
agency/released from. _Italicized_ items are the new contracts; bolded are new updates.

I’ll also be adding traded players in some capacity.
