“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. ”

 

“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.”

“Cruz took a step back in the power department in 2012, but he did play nearly a full-season which is amazing considering Nelson Cruz's history of getting injured. Nelson should be back to his 30/100 ways now that the Rangers will need his bat more than ever with Hamilton/Napoli gone. He has a very underrated 20 SB potential.”
