thought on Alex Gordon.

I have Sandoval but I have been counting on him...like all keeper league members...for a while now?


Predictions this year?

What are you looking for on Gordon? I think he will be ok but I don't see a big breakout or anything. Maybe .280 under 20 HR and 70ish RBI/R. I wouldn't expect more than that.

I wouldn't be disappointed in that. I am looking for a consistent .290 25 HR, 90 RBI guy. He has been hurt and I'm hoping if he is healthy that he can finally perform. The Royals have at least been a better offensive team since he has been brought up...at least capability wise.

My thoughts are Alex Gordan is that Jorge Cantu often comes cheaper and should put up numbers similar to Micheal Young who usually gets drafted ahead of both of them. All Gordan has shown is a low batting average and none of the power he was projected to have.

At Mock Draft Central, Cantu has an average draft position of 180 and Gordon is at 250. He isn't overrated anymore In that early to mid 200s range, I don't see the harm in taking a shot at Alex. There's even better value below him like Kouzmanoff at 328th overall.

Don't rule out Brett Wallace either. The Jays are planning to get him in the line as often as possible even if it means DHing him or playing him at first. Even at third he only has Edwin Encarnacion & Jose Bautista to compete with. Wallace is a great contact hitter who I believe has a lot more power potential then what he flashed in the minors.

Brandon Wood is interesting down there, as well.
