Looking to move one of the following bats helpful for this year or next. Mainly looking for an SP upgrade, pen help, picks or prospects:
Billy Butler
#37 hitter in WAR based on ZIPs projections (3.8 wins)
Projects .295/.362/.476 23 HR 92 RBI 100k/60BB
Mostly a DH, but can play 1B (fr/142)
Real life .289/.382/.428 12 HR 62 RBI 73K/65BB
*Has heated up in August, hitting 3 HR and driving in 9 runs in 19 games
Alex Rios
Projects .271/.307/.434 18 HR 70 RBI 20 SB (AV/117 in RF FR/84 in CF)
Real life: .276/.325/.417 12 HR 57 RBI 28 SB
*Move to Texas hasn't hurt: 2 RBI 5 R 2 SB since moving south.
Garrett Jones
Projects .253/.309/.446 20 HR 74 RBI 5 SB
Projects with AVG range in RF and 1B. VG power vs. left and right. Solid lefty bat off the bench
Gregor Blanco
Projects .227/.322/.326 4 HR 25 RBI 21 SB (AV/AV/VG)
Real life: Worth 1.8 wins because of speed and great defense. Also has a 9.3% BB rate, giving him a .254/.323 line. Little power, but 11 SB and defense makes him an ideal backup OF/starter in a pinch for this or next year.

Well, timing is funny, isn't it? A day after getting Jason Heyward, newly acquired IBC Tiger Jonathan Niese hits newly acquired IBC Tiger Heyward in the jaw, possibly breaking it. My clubhouse is in disarray and curmudgeony-ass Jim Leyland is getting the boot.
But, needless to say, Alex Rios is probably a little more valuable to me now. So, he's probably not as available as a day ago. He could certainly move, but depending on the circumstances.
Still actively shopping Billy Butler.
