    2. Reid Brignac

    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

    i think texas likes andrus and teagarden alot (more than salty) so i wouldn't expect either of them dealt. but brignac is a definite possibility since tampa took beckham 1st in this years draft with the idea that he'd be their ss of the future.

    a few other ss's that could be available are oscar tejada from boston, chris nelson and hector gomez from colorado and marcus lemon from texas.

    he's just one of the few i mentioned who i thought could be available. shotstop is one of the better positions to target simply cuz they can be moved to other positions easier if it's needed.

    I doubt FMart is available, but I would love to get my hands on him. He is going to be pretty good. Salome is someone who crossed my mind, but I figured the Crew would keep him so thats why I went with Lucroy instead. Good list.

    fernando martinez was the one player that new york wouldn't make available in the johan santana talks and i doubt they will for us.

    Does Nelson Cruz with texas still count as a minor leaguer?
