Justin Masterson, RHP, free agent — Masterson feels he’s going to be healthy by the time free agency rolls around. He’ll likely be signed to a three-year deal and come off as a bargain. He dealt with three injuries (rib cage, knee, and shoulder impingement) and though he was removed from the rotation for the playoffs by the Cardinals (after a 7.04 ERA), he is recovered from all three injuries with no surgery required. Noted Phoenix-based physical therapist Brett Fischer worked out the scar tissue in his rib cage, which had restricted him. The injuries hurt Masterson’s numbers, but teams such as the Red Sox may take the leap that Masterson, 29, will be very good again.
