but would like to point out that Haniger is ahead of O'Neill. O'Neill, Fowler, Haniger later this year? Or is it O'Neill, Haniger Fowler?
Same ideas fit for the Cutch acquisition, re-suggested in the Segura thread. I can't see why the Pirates would trade him for what we can offer though.
Still would like to see a high OBP slick glove OF acquired for #1/2 in the order and Fowlers handedness adds to the great fit. Not too worried about Cutch being RH facing RHP anyway. Around .400 OBP says he can produce no matter what side the pitcher throws from. .360 some last year, same deal anyway. I'd bet against McCutchen hearing here except that I remember the Lee acquisition (we've certainly got comparable pieces to that) and Dipoto makes so many moves that it's not feeling as safe to bet against. He may be happy with this OF mix anyway and no longer concerned with the top of the order after acquiring Segura/Haniger. Those 2 could be #1/2 in June anyway.
