Jason is a very good #3 outfielder but doesn’t get hardly any recognition because he is in Minnesota. Everything is in line to either maintain his power or improve his power numbers, so he could very well help you out in this department. He’s not going to hit 25 HR the rest of the way but he could easily give you 15-20 the rest of the way. He’s also becoming more selective at the plate so he is hitting his pitch and not the pitchers’ pitch.

2008	0.263	2.430	28.3%	4.35	-0.887	16.02	4.27

Todd has been a nice story so far but he has also been extremely lucky. His FIP is almost .75 Runs worse than his ERA right now and his qERA is even worse. On top of that he’s not very economical in his pitches and he’s not showing great dominance or command. See what you can get for him, because the risk/reward curve on him right now isn’t great.
