Arizona outfield

[Phineas to Ferb]

Does anyone have any idea how the Arizona outfield is going to shake out?

I'm in a 12 team NL only - I have Parra at $4 and Kubel at $24, which are decent prices considering the inflation. After the Ross signing, it occurred to me that I'm at a loss as to what Arizona is trying to do, much less what they are going to do.

Any insight? Any locals with a better bead on what's going on?

Kubel seems all but gone. Final year of his deal and is the worst defender of the bunch.

It could also be a platoon in left with Kubel and Ross, with Ross getting additional at-bats covering center and right on occasion.

That's one expensive ass platoon

Upton to Texas for Andrus and Martin.

Upton to Texas for Andrus and Martin.

No, I think that Texas turned that deal down earlier...they value Andrus too much, IMO. They can slide Profar in and leave Kinsler at 2nd, solving all of their problems other than 1B, and they could probably sign LaRoche pretty easily.

If they deal Andrus and Profar struggles or Kinsler gets hurt...they have a problem. They may just like the fact that having Andrus/Profar/Kinsler they are prepared in case of injury to any of the three and if they want all 3 to start...they have the room to do so.

And what about Eaton? Half the things I've read say he is still slated for a starting spot.

Latest Upton Rumor

Per Rotoworld:
"FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi report that Justin Upton rejected a trade that would have sent him to the Mariners."

It sure looks like they're hell-bent on trading him.

I read on twitter that they are taking down Upton pics at the stadium.

funny, I only have 3 OF keeper candidates, and 2 of them are trade-rumored DBacks Upton 30 and Kubel 20. Neither a bargain, but with inflation....
