Whoowheee, now youre talking my language!

Imagine that, a team filling holes with guys that are good enough to DH, but can play ONE position.

That's about all the "versatility" i would be looking for except for the utility player who should be a good defender with base stealing potential.

He definitely isn't a UT. Not seeing any CF or INF since 2014. Pure corner OFer.

You could probably say the same thing about Torrens, France, White and Dilly. Just change the positional flexibility. Until you see film and try them out somewhere you just don’t know. Ice suggested he wasn’t worthy to play ss because of his being error prone.... I’m not sure how to find anything in Japan to prove one way or another whether he can be a UT. His past suggests he can. But if he hasn’t played anywhere but right field for over 7 yrs than that might provide more questions than easy answers
If he can come close to hitting like he did in Japan I don't care if he can only DH.
Bingo

I predict a position magically appears like it did with France

I’m tired of strikeout artists and overjoyed Jake went elsewhere.....

Yeah people are talking about being good with trading for Chapman. 80 BBs and 202Ks. Seiya was at 87 BBs and 86Ks.

Suzuki and Starling Marte should be high on Dipotos list of priorities.

Even the nerds at LL aren't trying to count on the shrapnel we have in the outfield at the moment, that's reassuring that maybe Dipoto can see the obvious holes also.

Yeah, you can see Shannon Drayers crotch get wet talking about Chapman, great defender but another right hander and what do we need with another strikeout artist? The fact that Seiya works the count and obviously takes his walks makes him very interesting to me.

His September was complete shit so not like France that sucked when he was hurt than hit well after he recovered. .136/.604
