Need a utility infielder with some pop? Blake DeWitt has ratings at 2b, 3b, ss and lf. Wouldn't take much to get; just a lower prospect.
Brett Lawrie could be had for the right price. He's currently tearing it up in IBC (.302/.350/.545) has a defensive rating of average at 2b, and very good at 3b (he's putting up some monster defensive numbers in real life thanks to making plays in short right field when the Blue Jays run their lefty shift).
Mike Moustakas is also available (thought I'll move either Lawrie or Mous, doubt it'll be both). Mous is enjoying a break out year in MLB and has the highest WAR of any AL 3b. He's posting decent numbers in IBC as well (.277/.320/.463). He's proving to be a solid defender in real life as well.
Billy Hamilton, who is cruising towards a MiLB stolen base record (currently at 80 SB) is available. He's really starting to put things together this year, and it's not just as a base runner. He's hitting .322/.408/.441 in HiA, with a walk rate of 12.1% and a K-rate of 16.9%, showing he's becoming much more comfortable at the plate. It's believed he'll end up as a CFer since his hands aren't the greatest, but with his speed he should handle the transition easily. My personal belief is the Reds want him to focus on his offensive game before having to worry about learning a new position, so I'm thinking next season perhaps he'll make the move (or maybe they're sold he'll develop better hands at SS with time, he certainly has no problem getting to any ball).
Outside of the above mentioned guys, everybody is available. I've been rebuilding for a few years now and I don't intend to spend the rest of my IBC career in rebuilding phase, so I'm not very interested in prospects that are multiple years away from the bigs unless I see a good value in such a deal. Big hitting corner OFs and 1B's and pitching are my main targets, but really I'm open to anything as long as I see a good value for my team. I'm not in any hurry to deal Lawrie or Moustakas since Mous is doing fine as my DH and maybe Lawrie will end up maintaining a 2b rating.
