Please no coco. We don't need ...I pray no coco. Please no coco. We don't need a mediocre centerfielder to eat our small budget towards getting a good player. He is unlikely to be more than a win or so better than torres and could be up to 2 or so wins worse if torres rebounds, and will cost about 5 million more. and would probably take more than one year. Not good. I really dont want Michael Cuddyer of the 111 OPS clunking in the outfield either.<br /><br />I hope they keep Beltran, two switch hitters with 60+ xbh power sandwiching Buster would be devastating, and would minimize pressure on Belt, who could blossom as a post clean-up #6 hitter. <br /><br />The one move I hope they can make, which would be my White Whale, would be to trade for BJ Upton. Any idea what the prospect cost would be? Rays could really use a near-MLB ready catcher. Maybe Hector Sanchez could make it happen?<br /><br />BJ Upton has a .340 career obp, good power, and is a great baserunner. Also a prime defensive centerfielder. And watching him step up this september has been awesome. I would love to have him hold down CF until Gary Brown can take over in 2013.Panhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02787181361061537590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23735245.post-67193238454079448652011-09-30T22:10:14.985-07:002011-09-30T22:10:14.985-07:00On a more serious note.....Sabes has tended to tel...On a more serious note.....Sabes has tended to telegraph his moves more in recent years. He has tended to eschew offseason trades ever since he got burned by the AJ deal. <br /><br />He practically shouted from the rooftop who he's going after this offseason. His #1 priority after he nails down the pitching is CF/leadoff and he specifically said there are no in-house options he's comfortable with. There is only one player on the FA market that fills that bill: Coco Crisp!DrBGiantsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699322384438591979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23735245.post-68047114242377787442011-09-30T21:40:55.449-07:002011-09-30T21:40:55.449-07:00At least Huff's kids have shoes to wear on the...At least Huff's kids have shoes to wear on their feet and food to put in their tummy's.
