“Has Cano-like consistency if not quite Cano-like upside”

 

“The safest pick you won't have to empty the bank on, Phillips is a reliable five-category producer. ”

“There's potential for great value here. A 4th round pick just last season, Napoli moves to Boston, where he'll spend plenty of time at 1B. ”

“Phillips is another guy that won't hurt you in any category. He won't blow you away anywhere, either.”

 

“Phillips went from a 30/30 player to a 20/20 player, to now a 20/20 season is maybe the ceiling for how good he can be. We all know Brandon is an ELITE talent, but if he's going to put up the same numbers 5 years straight with a slight decline each year. There may not be much hope for 31 Year Old for a brighter future.”

“Napoli is not near 100% with a hip injury. Despite being able to hit 24 HRs in a terrible year last season with Texas, and clubbing out 30 HRs in less than 120 games last season. Mike Nap comes into Boston as one of the preimere bats. Health is a huge concern this Spring with the hip, he may not even start the season. Will still need to be the Red Sox man, but keep in mind it is a long season and you always want to come in 100% healthy.”

 

“On my 2013 all bust team.”

 

“if he proves to be healthy in spring training then he could move into a second tier option”
