Carlos Alfonzo a right handed closer, who we could move to our "setup" guy, had a nice year, and is high on our list, but he is a bit expensive for the Aces. May pass on him early, and see if his demands come down at all.
As far as hitters, particularly catchers and first baseman, our primary needs, we may have to settle for John Thomas and Roberto Colon at catcher for another year! The top rated catcher,
Hubert Marks, didn't even hit over the Mendoza line.
The top first baseman, Ken Kelley is a stud, but his agent is asking for $70,000, and if I mentioned that to our owner, he would faint!
So, we'll have one more meeting, and as our "junior scouts" and interns continued to break down the numbers of each player, I looked over my list of agents I needed to call!
