I'm wondering what the price tag is going to be on some of these CFs. It's an interesting lot.

You have:

Bourn - speed and defense player with little power and a decent bat.

Pagan - speed and defense player with little power and a decent bat.

Upton - 5-tool talent that has maybe never become as good as everyone thought, but could be a legit 30/30 threat.

Victorino - May no longer be a CF and seems to have lost a step, but probably still has value to someone.

All of these guys have produced at high levels. All of them have hit major bottoms too. Upton is the only one with power, so I'm guessing he'll the biggest money, but he also has attitude and effort questions. Then again, he's also right in the middle of his prime, whereas the other three are on the backside of it.

It's going to be an interesting market and the 3 best teams in our division are all in on it.

Despite knowing that a change of scenery probably isn't going to have much of an effect on his attitude and approach to his job, I have convinced myself to join Team Upton.

The more I look over all the players and what they would cost, the more I really want Denard Span.
