Melendez feels like the kind of guy who has the tools to turn things around.
Another team might be willing to deal for him, and I'd be ok with that. |

Top of the order guy and then a corner outfielder with some pop.

As far as throwing out runners, Salvy looked pretty bad in the playoffs. I get that he was tired and had to carry the load cause Vinnie had to DH and couldn't play first. But during the regular season, Fermin threw out 61% stealing second (14 out of 23 runners). Salvy only threw out 8 of 28 (28%) That's a pretty sizeable difference. I absolutely LOVE Salvy, but his best catching days are behind him and I'd rather have Fermin back there to control the running game. Have no issue with Sal starting a few here or there, but it needs to be limited. Especially if they want to take advantage of his bat these last couple years. |

I'm still on board. He's still only 25 and turns 26 soon. He may never pan out but there are plenty of guys like Moose, Gordon, Soler that didn't get it until 26 or 27 years old. If they trade him fine, but it's hard to just give up on a guy who has the talent to be a Moose or Soler type bat hitting .240 with 30 HR.

Most of those SBs you witnessed were on the pitcher, not Salvy.

Freddy Fermin and Seth Lugo finished in the top 5 of the Fielding Bible voting at their positions.
