Official Elias Rankings By Ben Nicholson-Smith [October 28, 2010 at 3:18pm CST] MLBTR has obtained the official Elias rankings for the upcoming offseason. The list below includes all ranked free agents, including those who have already signed, those who say they'll retire and those whose options will likely be picked up. Once the regular season ended, the Elias Sports Bureau took all players over the 2009-10 period, divided them into five groups for each league, and ranked them based on various statistics. Each player was labeled a Type A, B, or none. Those designations and the possible accompanying arbitration offers determine draft pick compensation (click here for a refresher). The numbers beside the players' names represent their rankings. If teams sign more than one Type A free agent, one team gets a top compensation pick and other teams lose out. The team losing the highest-ranked free agent obtains the best pick the signing team can offer and other teams fall in line behind the team that loses the top-ranked player. Type A Bronson Arroyo -- 80.033 - club option Grant Balfour -- 72.923 Adrian Beltre -- 81.633 - player option Carl Crawford -- 85.128 Jorge de la Rosa -- 74.422 Scott Downs -- 76.352 Adam Dunn -- 74.167 Frank Francisco -- 73.171 Jason Frasor -- 73.383 Vladimir Guerrero -- 80.000 - mutual option Matt Guerrier -- 79.569 Ramon Hernandez -- 74.517 Derek Jeter -- 91.304 Paul Konerko -- 78.095 Jason Kubel -- 80.000 - club option Cliff Lee -- 87.500 Derrek Lee -- 74.167 Ted Lilly -- 80.116 Victor Martinez -- 87.054 Bengie Molina -- 72.321 Magglio Ordonez -- 77.436 Carl Pavano -- 75.568 Andy Pettitte -- 80.492 A.J.
