Hey Vanimal, I think your bang on the buck for Jones and McCutchen would be limited. Guys on the wrong side of 30, used to commanding salaries of 14-18 million per, and in steady statistical decline.

Here I was totally invested in Josh Field...

Man, what got into this guy in the past year?   Always a decent OBP guy, but avg. jump really spiked everything in 2018. That's a Kirilloff level OPS at AA/AAA (much higher IsoD than Alex). Hoping for

This site never lets me down!

Well, you know it's a slow week when a move like this one gets so many comments! But honestly, I like this waiver claim. Seems like a low risk move with plenty of potential upside. Like many posters here, I had never heard of Michael Reed before but I am intrigued by the numbers he put up in recent years. Might he turn into another pleasant keeper like Jake Cave?

I saw him play In Gwinnett Quite a bit and he is legit! He can hit, run and has great jumps on the ball. He also has no problem laying out to make a catch...made diving catches in CF that many guys just let drop.

IMO the reason his BABIP was so elevated is he squares up the ball and hits a lot of line drives. We all figured it was unsustainable, but he proved us wrong.

I wish we would have used him in July, but AA never gave him a shot. He seems like a good kid as well. Sorry we lost him, but he deserves an opportunity, hope his success continues until you play the Braves...
