Where will J.D. 'Just Dingers' Martinez call home in 2018?

One of the biggest stories of the second half of the 2017 season was the dramatic evolution of J.D. Martinez from Very Good Hitter to Otherwordly Hitter Who Exclusively Hits Home Runs.
After arriving in Arizona via trade from Detroit, Martinez hit 29 home runs in just 62 games. He finished 2017 with a ridiculous .690 SLG%, the highest for any player with at least 450 plate appearances since Barry Bonds in 2004. 

The D-backs saw firsthand what kind of an impact a guy nicknamed "Just Dingers" can have on a team. Now a free agent, Martinez will surely make his next team just as happy as Arizona was in the second half.
Check out the video at the top of the page to find out where we think the slugger could be heading and what our insider Peter Pachinko thinks about Martinez's free agency.
