Injuries have decimated the last two seasons for the southpaw as he's made just 25 appearances since the beginning of 2021 and just three in 2022. Given his 3.13 career ERA and multiple seasons under a 2.00 mark, Britton will surely get a contract if healthy, but whether it's on a major league deal remains to be seen.
