November 8, 2007
Scout Carlos Villa accepted our offer and immediately went to work. He had depressing news about our 2007 draft class. It was not nearly as good as Enriquez had reported.
The only shocker from Villa’s major league report was that Simon is on the decline in contact. I guess it should have been obvious from his .237 average.
The successor for Simon just jumped to the top of my off-season shopping list, which is:
1. Utility infielder / eventual starting third baseman
2. Right-handed starting pitcher that could become an ace
3. Right-handed hitting outfielder to groom as Morgan’s replacement
Now that Villa is on the job, I can get to work evaluating possible trades and (soon) free agents.
