I go along with Hendricks for a 3




I probably should have waited until Surg and Weenie quit arguing

Robertson can play multiple infield positions but hasn't hit much

I give him a 1.5

Just as I thought, you can't explain it. Hendricks was rated the number one reliever in baseball by MLB Network, and you give him a 1.5.



An answer of, "Oh, that was a typo" would have been more believable.



You have heard of Schwarber, remember him from the WS and having a nice HR year in 2019, so you give him a 3 because of playing the Pirates a lot. You never once saw Hendricks, but a quick dash to some site for stats, settled for a 1.5.



What an awesome choice to the esteemed panel!

He is an interesting player. Has had some success in the minors. Is the type of player that just may need a change from original team in order to discover his potential.

There is a rumor that the Pirates maybe one of the teams talking to the Red Sox about Andrew Benintendi. He was a draft choice of BC when he was at Boston. He is only 26 years old, has had a couple of down seasons, but he could be worth the gamble if a trade didn’t involve one of the Bucs tops prospects.

Here's an article from last July. Stokes broke his hamate bone and missed 2020. He's shown some power in the minors.

Interesting article about Stokes. When you are in a rebuild mode guys like, Evans, Alford, and Stokes are players you want to get a closer look at.

with the addition of Stokes the Bucs have 5 outfielders on 40 man roster. The Tigers still have 8 (including ex- Bucs Robbie Grossman and Jacoby Jones)



Rooting for Stokes to become a good player with the Bucs.

Just a crazy idea, but what if the Red Sox added a young pitcher along with Benintendi, and the Pirates trade B. Reynolds. I like Reynolds, and I would hate to lose him , but the Bucs would get a high end pitcher and 3 years of control with Benintendi.
