Red Sox Taking Aim at Prince Fielder This Offseason?
by Adam Hirshfield on Sep 15, 2009 2:21:39 AM
Prince Fielder Apparently, the Red Sox are going to land Prince Fielder this
offseason.
So says Buster Olney, who calls it "pure speculation," but contends that
"Fielder could be playing for the Red Sox next season."
Why, you ask? Well, it actually makes a fair amount of sense on the Brewers'
side of things to get what they can for the slugging, 25-year-old first
baseman
before he becomes a free agent following the 2011 season.
ESPN.com's Keith Law suggests that after making the playoffs last season
riding
the left arm of ace CC Sabathia, the Brewers came into 2009 hoping to contend
in the wide-open NL Central (despite having lost Sabathia to the Yankees via
free agency). But their pitching staff hasn't lived up to expectations and
several everyday players -- Corey Hart, J.J. Hardy and the recently traded
Bill
Hall among them -- have come back to earth after career years. Milwaukee now
sits fourth in its division, 15 games back of the first-place Cardinals.
And it's now up to GM Doug Melvin to decide whether it makes sense to make one
more push for the postseason next year or start rebuilding the roster in a
more
economical fashion. "From my perspective," Law says, "it looks like tearing it
down makes a lot more sense than propping it up."
What would it take to get the Brewers to dump Fielder in a trade? Premium
young
pitching, says Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports. Something tells me the Brewers
might be able to find something to their liking in the Red Sox' rich farm
system.
Of course, it's still unclear whether Fielder is the one the Milwaukee brass
would favor jettisoning as the Brewers rebuild, but his $6.5 million salary
this year and the $10.5 million he's owed for 2010 will certainly weigh
heavily
on the relatively small-market organization. Especially if they're out of the
pennant race by July.
But those figures are unlikely to scare off a franchise like the Red Sox.
Heck,
GM Theo Epstein is already paying nearly that much this season for Julio Lugo.
In fact, the numbers the Sox would be more interested in are Fielder's
averages
of .283, 38 homers and 107 RBIs over the last four seasons. Who's to say the
lefty bopper couldn't reapproach his career high of 50 homers if he's aiming
at
Pesky's Pole 81 games a year.
Yes, the 2009 All-Star Home Run Derby winner is a generously proportioned 270
pounds, give or take, but he's surprisingly agile in the field. He has made
only six errors at first this season and owns a career fielding percentage of
.991.
This brings up another potential issue. Where would Fielder fit in on an
already playoff-bound Red Sox roster?
Well, Jason Varitek and Mike Lowell are nearing the ends of their terrific
careers. So it's not outrageous to suggest that if they're around in 2010,
they're likely to be occupying less prominent roles than they are this season.
So, with those spots somewhat opened up, Victor Martinez could become the
everyday catcher, and Kevin Youkilis could be shifted over to third base,
where
he's made just three errors in 52 games this year. David Ortiz could remain
the
Sox' regular designated hitter.
First base? Seems like an appropriately large opening for Mr. Fielder.
To be sure, there's a lot of baseball left to be played before Theo and the
Boston decision-makers start dipping their toes into the offseason hot-stove
waters. But regardless of how the rest of 2009 goes for the Red Sox, the
possibilities of 2010 and beyond are pretty exciting to think about.
雖說補了V-Mart,但是我總覺得他站一壘砲瓦有點小...(我貪心XD)
老爹老了...yuki很難會有30+HR,V-Mart生涯也没有30轟過~
(雖然他們的OPS不錯)
陣中好像只有Bay是30+hr的打者...而且還不一定留得住...
就算留下了~巳經習慣Manny-Ortiz連綫的我
還是希望能找一個類似A君或小王子之流的巨砲來組成火網啦~~
