Probably more of a Kyle Schwarber than a Suzuki so dipoto won't be interested. Was gonna say, if Frazier got moved off 2nd base they could play him in left field.

Did you see this, in depth piece on Winker

I hadn't. Thanks again.
Winker is generally regarded as a better defender than either Castellanos or Kyle Schwarber, and most pundits expect both those players to command weighty contracts in free agency. Winker has been a better defender and better hitter than both over the past two seasons. There are surely teams that would rather part with prospects to acquire two years of Winker than pay annual salaries near (or in excess of) $20MM for Schwarber and Castellanos.
I'd put Haniger in a group with Winker. Castellanos and Schwarber in a group of below average outfielders.
Yeah, probably right I just can't get that vision of Mitch falling ass over Tea Kettle going after a fairly routine fly bay when da Bronx and I were at the game in Yankee stadium...lol
