Okay, I managed to put off the depressing process of looking at my teams for a while, but might as well get on with this. SUR looks mostly terrible again for 2013, continuing to hope that more young players will realize their potential.
Needs: More young talent to dream on. Could find a place for OF, 1B, 3B, SS, and pitchers. More interested in major leaguers than picks or prospects at the moment, but feel free to tempt me.
For sale:
1) Adrian Gonzalez: Coming off his A contract, presumably to a B, but I don't know. Perhaps YOC will drop that knowledge on us at some point. I do know that he had his worst season in ages, but still wasn't bad and is young enough to bounce back with better ones.
2) Yunel Escobar: Yes, he was terrible, but he's an everyday SS. What's your point?
3) Wilin Rosario: I don't really want to trade the guy who was by far our best hitter, but he's kinda stuck behind Wieters, so I would consider it to get a comparable talent at a position with more need.
4) Logan Forsythe: Similarly, he did a nice job as primary 2B for SD most of the season, but is stuck behind Espinosa, who I like a bit more.
5) Luke Scott: Uhhhh...820 OPS vs. RHP! And he's cheap!
6) Nate McLouth: Sparked the Orioles to playoff glory! Yeah, whatever.
7) Ricky Nolasco: 31 starts with decent numbers overall from doing his typical up and down thing. Just hit 30, so I guess he needs to go.
8) Edwin Jackson: 31 pretty good starts. Not quite 30 yet so he could stay, but I might as well float him out here.
Okay, I guess that's it. SUR could also deal picks, prospects and/or cash to get what I want.
