Can you guys give me an estimate of what you think Sexson will put up for numbers this year? Thanks

I have him down for .270/35/90/115.

He's coming off a major shoulder injury which could hurt his power, and moving to a pitcher's park. While he's still a great power hitter, there are a lot of reasons to be cautious this year and a lot of 1B I would take before him.

thats about what i have down for. risky, but a potential bargain in some drafts.

Unless he comes cheap, take another 1b. This guy killed his owners last season and I would not want to pay any top round pick for him this year and fall into the same trap.

well I already have a combo of Ortiz and Dunn at 1st, so dealing HUff for Sexson + antoher player, wouldnt be too bad.

If you have Ortiz and Dunn and Huff, why would you want Sexson? Huff is a nice 3 position guy to have. Would not deal him for Sexson and his shoulder unless you got someone pretty good in addition to him, and I can't imagine anyone giving you that much.

well, i have Dunn playing OF right now, and David Wright can fill in for huff at 3B, and I like sexson cause he has the possibility of 35HR and 125RBI. Do you think Huff could go .300 35 120?

Huff could easily go 300/30/100. Sexson has more power, will hit for less of an avg....also has the shoulder. I hardly see why you would worry about the differental power-wise between the 2 unless you felt confident Sexson was going to smash 50. Huff goes higher in a draft for a number of reasons not the least of which is he is the better overall player and safer pick. You want to deal Huff, it should be to get another player that addresses a need imo, not to change to someone like Sexson.
