I am in desperate need of a 2b upgrade. I have tried hard to trade for a viable 2bman, but to no avail. I have just been countered with an offer of Dee Gordon for my Brad Miller and Corey Kluber.
I recognize I would be buying very high on Gordon, and I know he will regress a lot. But what I don't know is how long he has made his leash, and how likely the very highly paid Alex Guererro is to eventually take his job. If Gordon can keep the job, I am tempted to counter. I think I can get him for Miller or Kluber straight up.
So, multipart question:
1. Will Gordon continue to play well (not as well as he has, but well enough).
2. Will him playing decently be enough to have him keep his job all year?
3. Would you trade either or both of Brad Miller and Corey Kluber to get Gordon?
