Edwin Encarnacion

Nothing that hasn't already said but if you can upgrade from Bour to Encarnacion, you do it. And I do like Bour. With Edwin's market dwindling and his price tag lowering, I really hope the Marlins have thought about this.

am I having dejavu or you already said the same thing before

 

 

I mean is he a disaster at 1b or something?  I'm sure he can't handle 3b anymore.    But if you had to pick between 5/85 for Jansen or 3/60 for Encarnacion?  Seems like a no-brainer.  I like Bour too, and actually I think if he could stay healthy he might even get better offensively.  But I worry about nagging injuries with him.  Encarnacion is already that established top-end power bat and he's been pretty healthy in recent years.  Plus if you chose not to keep Bour you could probably get a decent reliever or prospect in return.

He was actually decent at first base last year. I'm shocked his market is this dry.

 

 

Why aren't the Marlins making a play on him? Does it make too much sense or something? Improve the team too much?

 

they also just signed AJ ellis. How much more of an offensive upgrade do you need for a top 5 team in batting average?
