He irritates us because he's extremely hot for 10 days then dormant for a month. He's not perfect but he is still a solid starter who could push to become a fringe all-star is he can make the adjustments necessary to limit his cold streaks.<br /><br />Blackmon's OPS+ the last 2 seasons: 103, 102<br />Blackmon's WAR the last 2 seasons: 2.1, 2.4<br /><br />I like Blackmon, but not at the cost of Duda. Additionally, Colorado has a young(ish) lefty hitting 1B in Ben Paulsen who can pair w/ Mark Reynolds to hopefully reproduce Duda's #s at half the cost. If I'm Colorado, I'm trading Blackmon or Dickerson for the best available arm or catcher.<br /><br />Maybe Plawecki???Kevin Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-21133002925995908312015-12-16T13:23:30.608-05:002015-12-16T13:23:30.608-05:00Like it, Zozo.Like it, Zozo.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-57381012511476118342015-12-16T13:07:09.021-05:002015-12-16T13:07:09.021-05:00I would go Duda for Blackmon, since they are looki...I would go Duda for Blackmon, since they are looking for a first basemen. If you need to throw some young prospect in to make this happen then go for it.

I...Why wouldn't Dickerson's price be high? I would argue that he's comparable to Marcell Ozuna and his asking price is pretty high. If I were Colorado, I'd be asking for the trading team's 1st or 2nd pitching prospect and another top 10.<br /><br />This would be a prime spot for Montero but nobody will touch him until he proves he's healthy. No way I move Wheeler for him. Molina is hurt and too far away. I don't think Ynoa has the kind of upside they would look for. Doesn't look like people value Gsellman all that much but he's a ground ball pitcher who would most likely project as a #4/5 starter sliding behind Jon Gray, Jeff Hoffman & Kyle Freeland.<br /><br />Maybe we could get him for Gsellman and Beccera but I think Colorado could probably find a better deal.Kevin Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-83346227420213483512015-12-16T11:27:59.670-05:002015-12-16T11:27:59.670-05:00Good analysis, Reese.
