We are definitely stacked with MI prospects. Demeritte looks good and there are others as well. Odor and Profar, if we decided to move one, should net us more than a 3/4 type starter. Sardinas can be kept around as a UTIL guy. It's nice to see Rua sacrifice some power to become a more rounded hitter. He'll probably be included in some sort of package if we decide to move him.
What we do with Rios at the deadline may dictate how we approach next season. We could always move one of those MI guys to the OF or Gallo and make Beltre a 1B. We have a lot of options to consider. Should be a fun group to watch next season.
With that said, we definitely need another arm so we don't have to push Jackson or Gonzalez up before they're ready.

The rotation is going to be the number one concern going into next year. If ChiChi keeps up his pace in AA, I could see him starting as the number 4/5 starter next year (he will be 23). Realistically, he will probably start the season in AAA and be an early call-up. From what I've heard, Jackson might be better off as a middle reliever, although it would be awesome if he improved his secondary pitches and became a starter.
I still think they want Gallo to replace Beltre, otherwise they would've made the switch to outfield already. Corner outfield can be found in FA or internally (Choice...if he improves).
First base should be set for next year with Prince. After 2015, we will more than likely be looking for a replacement.
Profar is more than likely the most valuable MI, but I do not see us trading him. Odor has played himself into our 2nd most valuable trade prospect and as much as I love him, there doesn't seem to be a place for him......unless we trade Andrus, which is looking like the most possible scenario.
