Andrelton Simmons (2020/$7.5M): EX shortstop and classic full time #2 hitter.
Zack Cozart (2020/$4.5M): VG shortstop, full time numbers and great power from a SS.
Hit me up.
Hmmmm...
Sounds like someone was just bidding people up and got stuck with two SS :)
Not at all. I promise. I was bidding on Ryan Zimmermann to be my DH, hoping to get him for less than $5M. Once I was outbid on Zimm (I went as high as $5.3M), I turned my attention to Cozart, who has excellent power numbers for a SS. Didn't expect to land him for so little, but quite happy I did. Cozart is moving to 3B in 2018 and I'm losing Headley after this season, so it made sense.
I'll keep them both if I can't find a suitor.
