PM me with interest on anyone
My needs
CI, MI, and SP
Catchers:
Gregg Zaun - Brewers starting catcher, and that is a great lineup and ballpark to hit in
Prospect -->>Hank Conger - Offensive catcher who hit .295 with 11 HR's last year at AA
Prospect -->>Christian Betancourt - played pretty well last year at age 17, a young high-ceiling talent, one of the youngest players on a team's Baseball America top-10 ever
Corner-Infielders:
Prospect -->>Freddie Freeman - reached AA at age 19, offensive potential similar to Joey Votto, high average and good 25-30 HR power, he should be ready to take over at 1B for the Braves in 2011
Middle-Infielders:
Prospect -->>Jose Iglesias - Red Sox young Dominican shortstop phenom, over $8M signing bonus by Theo Epstein, defense is mlb-ready, bat is a year away, Jeter-type offensive potential, will begin at AA this year
Prospect -->>Jason Kipnis - Indians 2B prospect, will be on the fast-track with his move to 2B this season, has been compared to Dustin Pedroia by many
Outfielders:
Prospect -->>Jason Heyward - You already know everything about him, it's going to take a huge package to pry him away from me
Prospect -->>Ryan Westmoreland - Next year's Jason Heyward... it will also take a huge package to pry him away
Coco Crisp - new starting A's Centerfielder, will hit leadoff for them and has a good chance to steal 30-40 bases
J.D. Drew - had a solid year with a .278 AVG, 24 HR, 68 RBI, and a whopping .914 OPS in only 452 at-bats
Carlos Guillen - amazing bounce-back candidate, after the all-star break he was a stud with a .262 AVG, 11 HR, 35 RBI, .874 OPS in only 187 at-bats
Milton Bradley - now on the Mariners, will look to bounce-back from a sub-par year batting cleanup for them
Prospect -->>Peter Bourjos - Speedy outfielder coming up in a system for a team that loves to steal in the Angels, a ceiling near Jacoby Ellsbury, already has 6 SB's in spring training, could be in LA by mid-season
Starters:
Brett Myers - Solid Strikeout pitcher is a good bet for a sub-4 ERA now outside of Philly's ballpark
Kenshin Kawakami - 3.86 ERA, 1.34 whip in over 150 innings in your 1st mlb season? not bad, looking to build on that in 2010
Prospect -->>Aaron Crow - Royals top pitching prospect and 2009 1st-round pick
Prospect -->>Zack Wheeler - Giants 2009 1st-round pick
Prospect -->>Mike Minor - Braves 2009 1st-round pick
Prospect -->>Julio Teheran - Braves young Dominican pitching phenom, only 18 years old with a huge ceiling
Prospect -->>Randall Delgado - Braves SP stud, 141 K's in 124 innings at age 19 anyone?
Bullpen
Danys Baez - a sleeper for saves with Lidge struggling to come back from an injury and terrible season
Josh Roenicke - Blue Jays closer of the future will be a solid setup man this season, possibly even getting saves by September
Kevin Gegg - New Blue Jays Closer
Jon Rauch - Joe Nathan's replacement, solid setupman will be good for 35 saves this season in Minnesota
Octavio Dotel - Bad teams win close games, Dotel has no competition for his job and will save at least 30 games for the Pirates with a great K-rate
Mike Gonzalez - Dominant closer with great peripherals
Billy Wagner - Was dominant last year coming off his injury, may be willing to include Takashi Saito as insurance with him
