With training camp now here http://www.thetexansfootballauthentic.com/kahale-warring-jersey-authentic , teams are already looking forward to the 2017 regular season, and are all hoping to be the next Super Bowl champions. Some players are under contract for more than one season, and other players are in "contract years." That means that it is the last year on the player's current deal, and will look to give it more than 100 percent this year to prove that they are worth the money that they will ask for in the following offseason. Players who are in "contract years" tend to have better numbers because they are out to prove that they can be an effective asset in this league.With the league on the rise, and looking at the names of the 2018 free agency class shows that a lot of guys are poised to have big seasons. Some of these star players in the league will look to add on to what they are already worth, and to make sure that they can get the money in the following offseason like they believe that they should.Another aspect of this is that other teams look at certain players during the year to make a potential trade to help their team out Cullen Gillaspia Jersey , or they look at certain players to see if they will be able to not only get a meeting with said player, but to see if they will be able to afford the player for the foreseeable future. With the trade rumors swirling, and some big names who are under contract after the 2017 season are on the trading block it makes it interesting to see where some players will play in 2018. With that being said here are the 15 players that will be playing on new teams in 2018. Dylan Covey has come a long way since his major league debut last year.

All the way to an increasingly interesting prospect for the rebuilding Chicago White Sox.

Covey carried a shutout into the eighth inning, continuing his impressive June and helping the White Sox beat Trevor Bauer and the Cleveland Indians 3-2 on Wednesday night.

”He kept grinding,” manager Rick Renteria said. ”He kept pitching, getting after it and did a really nice job.”

Covey (3-1) allowed 10 hits – all singles – and walked none. The 26-year-old right-hander improved to 3-0 with a 1.53 ERA in five starts since he was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte last month.

The White Sox got Covey from Oakland in the 2016 Rule 5 draft. He went 0-7 with a 7.71 ERA in 18 games Rock Ya-Sin Jersey , 12 starts, last season, but he has looked like a different pitcher since returning to the majors.

”I’m just super comfortable, with my mechanics, with my pitches,” he said. ”I’m throwing offspeed for strikes http://www.thecoltsfootballauthentic.com/ben-banogu-jersey-authentic , I’m throwing my curveball for strikes. It’s just all about comfort for me right now.”

Covey got a warm ovation from the crowd of 19,390 when he departed after the first two batters reached in the eighth. Edwin Encarnacion hit a one-out RBI single and Yonder Alonso doubled home another run before Jace Fry struck out Melky Cabrera and Jason Kipnis, preserving Chicago’s 3-2 lead.

Joakim Soria allowed two more hits in the ninth before finishing for his 10th save in 12 chances. Michael Brantley bounced into a game-ending double play with runners on first and second.

”We couldn’t string enough hits together,” Indians manager Terry Francona said.

Cleveland wasted another impressive start for Bauer in its second straight loss after a stretch of five wins in six games. Brantley had three hits, but the AL Central leaders went 2 for 13 with runners in scoring position and left nine runners on base.

Bauer (5-5) struck out 12 in 7 2/3 innings while becoming the third pitcher in franchise history to record at least 10 Ks in four consecutive starts, joining teammate Corey Kluber and Hall of Famer Bob Feller.

”Missing a lot of bats Parris Campbell Jersey , limited contact, keeping the ball in the yard, not walking many people. It was a great outing,” Bauer said.

Bauer matched Covey zero for zero until the White Sox scratched across two in the fifth. Tim Anderson walked, stole second and went to third on a throwing error by catcher Roberto Perez before Charlie Tilson tripled into the corner in right . Tilson then scampered home on Trayce Thompson’s perfectly placed suicide squeeze.

Kevan Smith added an RBI single in the sixth as Chicago won for the third time in four games.

HELPING OUT

White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu helped Covey by turning a pair of slick double plays. He also doubled and scored on Smith’s single.
