With only a month and a half remaining in the 2009 season, we take a look ahead at the prospective Free Agency Class of 2009-10. Instead of going through every player coming up, we here at the money report picked the 6 or 7 teams who are currently in DEBT, or appear likely to finish the season that way, and selected players with an overall rating of 80 or better, and had expiring contracts or arbitration- this year.
