Article: Is Alex Kirilloff Expendable?

[ashbury]

Why must everything be so contentious when it comes to windows being open or closed?

Apparently you don't live in a house with a spouse who wants to crank up the air conditioning, while you want all the fresh air that comes from the windows being open. Or, vice versa.

I think I would consider Kirilloff my most valuable trading chip. More valuable than Lewis at this point in time. I'm basing this on the assumption that the FO/staff consider Kirilloff as having the best Hit tool in the system...by a significant margin.

 

That's an assumption that I don't know to be true. But it's realistic...and, if that's how the club evaluates Kirilloff, then there are very few scenarios that would warrant parting with him. The hit tool trumps everything...by a mile. See Luis Arraez.
