I was thinking Mark Lowe really. The Rockies don't have any holes in the lineup and are loaded in the OF. 2B maybe, but Barmes is doing just fine. They are set at SP as well.
Lowe+C level spec for Smith seems to make some sense. A Carlos Gonzalez-Dexter Fowler-Hawpe outfield seems to be what Col is looking for and Spilborghs could take over as the 4th outfielder for them.
Monster power (hittracker), quick bat, patient, good hitting peripherals, lefty line-drive hitter, very good D in a corner. Hes the perfect Safeco guy and a potential breakout player.
Some might be scared off of the Home/Away splits, but his splits were actually the opposite last year and his power translates everywhere. I don't see him as a Cirillo-type Colorado hitter.
