One possibility could be Ben Zobrist.
The 34-year-old is reportedly visiting teams this week, according to ESPN's Jerry Crasnick, with the Mets, Nationals, Dodgers and Giants "all in the mix" for Zobrist's services.

On Tuesday, Yahoo Sports' Jeff Passan reported that the price on Zobrist continues to rise and that the thought among teams is that it will take at least four years and $60 million to get a deal done.
Zobrist split time between the A's and Royals in 2015, playing 69 games at second base, 45 games in left field and five games in right field. In 126 games, he hit .276/.359/.450 with 36 doubles, 13 home runs and 56 RBI.
Over his 10-year career, which started with Tampa Bay, Zobrist is a career .265/.355/.431 hitter with 265 doubles, 127 home runs and 567 RBI.
