Tracy also may not be 100 percent at the start of the season. Def. a situation to watch, and Reynolds could shoot up draft boards in a month. Ya, it’s by no means a solidified spot right now.

He showed he could hit for power last year and worked past his 2 bad months of June/July to slug over .500 for the rest of the season. I think Reynolds has overtaken Tracy.

You are probably right about the situation. I had just written of Chad Tracy, and was looking at this reynolds kid, who seems to have at least some potential.

He might start over him against lefties, but tough ranking someone like that much higher. If Chad Tracy is healthy by Opening Day, I’m pretty sure Reynolds is a backup, no?

Some of his hype has worn off, so he comes recommended. Good point about Zimmerman - That hamate bone injury is something to be concerned about. But I think there's more upside to outweigh that worry with him. Gordon is going to be a star, I still think that. The fact he can add 15-20 SBs is so huge too. Just forget about the first two months of last year.

It has to be Zimmerman or Gordon, right? I am concerned about Zimmerman's hamate removal procedure sapping his strength all year long, but on the plus side, the new park should help, and he does get Nick Johnson back for 18 or 20 games until his next injury. What of Gordon? Is he anything like the guy his BA ranking last year suggested he should be?
