Jackson same????? Not by a mile. Jackson rallied at the plate before being traded. Thise year a partial plus+. Last year in SSS he was a huge - with the bat. Nothing more to complain about from you Rick.
Now Smurf city. I don't really like it at all. Cano to 1st? His bat is big for a 2 bagger but doesn't carry the same caveat to your proposed destination.
The Drop Trumbo to save $ is a crock.
Billy Beane loves to pick up Logan Morison, and Mark Trumbo in the walk years and let them compete, or job share, or step aside for someone moving up from AAA.
I liked that 2nd 1/2 offense. Can we pretend not to expect that any old Failure Taylor is finally going to click and be someone that contributes to winning team play. He may may shine in the mionors but until he begins to show me he can hit in MLB I am not building a roster around him being anymore than injury filler in AAA.
