    I’m liking Pollock for a corner: power’s not likely what it’s shown at Chase, but his speed’s still an asset despite the injuries, his offensive profile overall is good, and his defense in a corner would be great (plus he can back up Inciarte there, allowing more flexibility with the reserve unit).

    Agreed. But for me you’re just ranking suboptimal scenarios.

    Yeah, no on Markakis most likely for me too.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Could his name be Freddie Freeman?

    Looks like Julion is feeling pretty 2014 himself.

    Agreed. But for me you’re just ranking suboptimal scenarios.
    My thoughts exactly.

    Although, I would guess that Pollock’s bust possibility is higher than other potential options given the contract he is going to get, his age, and his health history. But I think at our point we need to take a risk or two while we have so many pre arb stars.

    He's a bit injury prone and already 30.

    He's putting on a power show so far this year, which may take him from the realm of surprisingly affordable to a premium.

    His defense would have played up in left before, but I would wonder if it just didn't play like a LFer not too far into his deal. I'm struggling with the fun answer in the OF if it isn't Harper. Going to pay somebody creaky more money for longer than you probably should.

    So in that respect, I'm not sure I mind making a splash for a middle order guy at 3B or catcher and bringing Markakis back on a 1 and 1.

    he's a great believer in veteran leadership, clutchness, maturity and grit

    Let's just go ahead and trade for Machado... extent him... sign Pollock off season. Freaking beast lineup.

    I think Inciarte got pitched around twice because Albies swings too much.

    Culberson motivated by Braves' claim of Gosselin.
