“McCann doesn't seem to be the player he once was, but hey, he still hit 20 HR last season.”

“It's amazing how quickly Utley has fallen from best player in baseball to guy from that 'It's Always Sunny' bit.”

“If you decide to wait on a catcher, you can do worse than taking a chance on McCann, who is targeting a mid-April return from shoulder surgery. He could return top-5 production if his health holds.”

“After being sworn off by many after news of his degenerative knee condition last season, he's hanging on and still producing when he's on the field. ”

“Injured (shoulder)”

 

“Should injury to a catcher is never a good thing. When the catcher is Brian McCann his value drops tremendously. Brian is still not 100%, and this is a very long baseball season where a shoulder injury will no doubt hurt the power numbers of Brian this season.”

“Utley was a player who did not start playing baseball well into the season. He never got the rhythm or the timing that he needed from seeing pitches since April. The days of Chase being a .300 hitter with 20 HR/20 SB potential is still there, and you could be giving up the trophy if you let someone else grab him late.”

 

“was a top 5 2B & stole 5 bases in that span showing that you can have confidence in his knee(s)”
