The real issue with Winn is that he's being paid 8+ million this year and next and he's clearly not worth that kind of money. |
Alou is getting that THIS season, for just about a couple of cameo appearances.
Depending on what the Giants would want (if they are even shopping Winn), I would take him, and keep him as the LF for next season as Martinez gets another half-season/full season in AA or AAA... Either way, the Mets would have had to go shopping for OF this winter anyway. The Mets would be nuts if they pick up Alou's option. Very foolish.
Winn isn't a power bat by any stretch, but what I am looking for is solid, steady day in-day out guy who is dependable. Winn fits that, IMO. I think a big key is Church, obviously.
