Miracle Max Hangover

The ACLs are wondering where this season has gone to. While the pitching has not been horrible, almost every bat on the the ACLs has gone cold. I know that Chris Davis is never going to be a batting average leader, but his 0.136 batting average is a sad, sad sight. The only problem is that isn't the worst of the worst on the ACLs, with Alex Avila hitting 0.089. Unfortunately, I doubt the best hitting coach could turn this thing around. So in that vein, the ACLs need to see if we can move some assets to get some future assets (like draft picks).

The following ACL players are available in the right deal.
David Ortiz (he can still hit and I'm sure will perk up in a playoff race)
Brandon Crawford (need better infield defense, he's your guy)
Dexter Fowler & Brett Gardner (good center field defense with some good offense too)
Carlos Beltran (an ageless one)
Bartolo Colon (another ageless one)
Dan Jennings and Sean Doolittle (cheap left-handed relief help)
Francisco Cervelli (would need a catcher back, but it is just a catcher with PAs)

I'm mainly looking for upgrades with draft picks or minor leaguers, depending on what's available.
