Off Season Block

Just so this is somewhat clear.

Jimmy Rollins: I still think he's an elite SS, and if you adjust his BABIP for his career average, his batting average would've been fine this year as well. But if I deal him, I'd want a SS in return, and probably pitching, unless there is a plethora of pitching coming back.

Carl Crawford: Again, pitching is the main front, but would like a good hitter back or some real good prospects.

BJ Upton: Most likely won't be dealt, too much of a sell low.

Those three are the ones that have gotten the most interest, so I just wanted to deal with them first. Thanks.

If you still think J-Roll is an elite shortstop, you're ethier on acid or...on acid


And I love Jimmy, but yikes. What happened J-Roll??

Bad Luck, his BABIP was terrible this year. If it normalized, his BA would be near or at his career average of .274. Then take the 21 HRs, 30 SBs, 100 runs, and 77 RBIs, and he's an elite SS. Now he's not an MVP caliber guy anymore, but for a weak SS position, there isn't much else out there.

Hanley, Reyes, and then who? Drew took a major step back. Jeter had a great season, but is 4 years older. Tulowitski is really the only I one I can think off.

EVERYONE on the block.

Austin Jackson available for anyone who needs a good CF option, young with potential as well!

Throw Ichiro to the block!
