I wish it were for JD, but alas, the other owner is not that stupid. However, he needs steals and I could use the batting average and power upgrade, although I wouldn’t want to lose SB either. However, Inciarte figures to lose playing time against lefties to duvall and really doesn’t contribute much outside of steals, he’s a slightly better Billy Hamilton. Martinez meanwhile has really cooled off, but has flashed good power/OBP and could be traded to a contender. Which begs the question, would he play full-time or be a 1B/OF util guy?
I’m inclined to do this considering Inciarte is on the down slope and Martinez helps in more categories, but wondering if I’m missing anything here as to why this other owner would make this offer 1-for-1? The bum ankle for Martinez doesn’t seem too bad.
