Lewis dropped on Fantrax


I think Lewis has the highest upside of anyone in this deal (not to mention highest proven past performance) - and I like the new opportunity in Arizona especially since he's the only RH of note on that roster at the moment - but I'm awash with CF and I need to diversify some of that value on my roster.
Madrigal has had injury issues of his own and probably only has a ceiling of a backup/bench guy in our format, but I think adding what I hope will be a viable 2B strengthens my roster and I like the flier on Schultz.
Thanks Micheal

White Sox approve.

I think I get the best player in the swap. Lewis is fantastic when he plays, problem is he doesn’t do that a lot. But I had plenty of 2B options. I think Madrigal regains some viability with his contact skills and removal of the shift. And Schultz has some intrigue with his arm slot and spin rate. He is just a long way off.

Thanks Stephen
