Need a CF and upgrades at SS and 2B. 1B and RF upgrades would be useful too, but aren't top priority.
Crow's available for someone who doesn't need a good sim this year. Prospects I'm dangling for now are Parker, Perez, Betances and any of my draftees.
PM or IM best ways to get me.
Need middle of diamond help
Dodgers
After the spreadsheet came out, and before Shawn put out his feelers, the below lineup is what I had for my division rival.
With almost errorless D in CF, albeit fair range, I play Hunter in CF where his bat is more valuable than in RF, and stick LaPorta in RF for the time being. I play Lombardozzi at SS since his better than average error rate is more valuable at SS than 2B, and Seager's worse rates hurt less at 2B.
Of course if the Dodgers acquire a leadoff hitting, 'Vg' range CF in Michael Bourne (nice fit) to play in spacious Dodgers Stadium, then things change quick.
