Its obvious that this team has 5 basic needs: Catcher Right Field Left Field Right Handed Set Up Left Handed Set Up And of course the possiblity of losing Benson, but thats remote seeing as both sides want to get a deal done. Players they should look at: Catchers Damian Miller- .294, 8 hr, 43 rbi Eli Marrero- .340, 6 hr 26 rbi Mike Jacobs- Norfolk * You will not see Varitek on this list bc/ he has hit only .245 on the road with 6 hr's and 24 RBI. Out of Fenway he is a bust waiting to happen He is also a Career .242 hitter on the road Right Field Richard Hidalgo- .265, 17 hr, 59 rbi Danny Bautista- .311, 11 hr, 55 rbi JD Drew- .307, 24 hr, 65 rbi Left Field Magglio Ordonez- .292, 9 hr, 37 RBI Right Handed Set Up Mike Timlin- 4.02 ERA 53.2 IP Steve Reed- 2.49 ERA 47 IP Felix Rodriguez- 3.43 ERA 45.2 IP Jay Witasick- 3.29 ERA 52 IP Left Handed Set Up Steve Kline- 2.35 ERA 38.1 IP Alan Embree- 4.35 ERA 38.i IP (0.96 ERA in ;01 before switching leagues) Chris Hammond- 4.15 ERA 30 IP Eddie Guardado (mutual option)- 2.78 ERA 45.1 IP Of course there are other over rated aging players I didnt mention, but these guys are the most important. This is what I want to see next year assuming we trade Floyd for prospects since nobody knows what the market for him is. Obviously the preferable trade value would be a left handed power hitting catcher. Reyes *Wright *Matsui Ordonez Piazza Hidalgo Cameron Jacobs/Marrero *Interchangable, only way to provide some left handed balance Glavine Zambrano Leiter Benson Trachsel Looper Kline-Rodriguez Embree-Reed Stanton-DeJean/Bottalico/Strickland (DeJean or Bottalico wont be back, the one is battles with Strickland in spring) |

I like JD Drew, but he's a Southern Boy who will most likely do whatever he can to stay with Atlanta. |

i'm still a little worried about signing a guy like j.d. drew, he's injury prone and had his best season this year, his contract year, i wouldn't go after him!!! |
