September 5, 201114 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 05:30 PM) Offense would be devastating. And clearly they'd come out and destroy the Yankees, Red Sox, and Rangers? And with the extra pitching the Rays have coming up? If everyone developed they could be competitive. Handing the AL to them because of talent?

If everyone developed they could be competitive. Handing the AL to them because of talent? You're talkin' 90-100 HRs from Bautista/Fielder. Spin Lind and a couple prospects from their loaded system for a SP/RP upgrade. Yes, they would be the favorite, IMO.

September 5, 201114 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 04:57 PM) Why exactly would anyone want Adam Lind? Can play multiple positions, above average power, and a team-friendly contract through 2013. I could see a team like the Rangers being interested. The possibilities are endless when you have so many team-friendly contracts, strong system, and a s***load of money to spend. Even with arb raises due to Escobar and Morrow, their payroll still won't sniff $50 million.
