Aaron Hicks?

[Gregg]

One of the contenders in our AL only keeper league 5x5 is peddling Aaron Hicks $2A to get some stats for the second half.

I am in rebuild mode but am not convinced Hicks is a good target. Still at 2 bucks not much risk.

What do you guys think of Hicks for 2018?

The Yankees OF is crowded, with Gardner under contract through 2018 and Ellsbury through 2020, plus Frazier, Judge and Hicks. Maybe they can trade Gardner?

I wouldn't sell the farm for Hicks, but at $2 he doesn't have to do much to return a nice profit, and has showed this year that he's capable.

And don't forget Holliday taking up the DH slot.

I agree with Virgonomic, it's way too crowded and he may only get you 300-400 ABs. So it really depends on what you're giving up.
