So right now I'm thinking maybe I'll put Michael Saunders in LF and DH Pedro Alvarez if I was to deal Matt Kemp. I realize Kemp is no longer a CF, but I do think he'll do just fine in either corner. More importantly we saw in the second half that he has re-gained his strength and can still crush the ball. Last season Mark McGwire said how impressed he was with his bat speed and how differt the ball sounds off his bat from everybody else. Matt Kemp immediately gives your team a bonifide 2/3/4 hitter who just turned 30, where power traditionally peaks for power hitters.
I don't need to deal him, but I'm a big believer in Michael Saunders and doubt he could get me the return Kemp could.
Prospects, picks, middle infielders, pitchers, or just value in general if you have a strong spot to deal from, just shoot me an offer.
Feel free to make offers on Saunders and Alvarez if you aren't interested in Kemp.
