Get a LH bat in the lineup at a low salary ($8M) in a similar park environment to Cincinnati where he was over an .800 OPS every year. Also lets you play Eloy at DH.

Not sure they can afford someone who can hit and field in LF so this might be the best they can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How else are you going to get a decent left handed hitter with some pop in this lineup with their budgetary restrictions and barren minor leagues?

I don't see a way for them to maintain decent offense in LF and get better defense without a miracle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
