Center field 3-way battleremains close
Eric Reed, Reggie Abercrombie and Chris Aguila are competing for the CF job.
Wes Helms and Jason Stokes are in competition for the LF one.
I would be surprised to see Stokes make his major league debut learning a new position. I think he'll go to AAA and be on speed dial for a call-up.
That would make Wes Helms the starting LF, which I don't believe. However, I do think he is going to get a lot of ABs this year. He can back-up 3B, 1B and play semi-regularly in the OF. That type of flexibility makes him an excellent option for a Roto team.
If Stokes does begin in AAA, the three CF competitors should make the team. Only Reed and Abercrombie offer excitement on the upside, but Aguila can't be dismissed if he garners 300 ABs.
He should be good for near-double digit HR and SB in that amount of playing time, and for $1 or a pool pick-up, that is great.
