I can see where Didi could have more offensive upside. I’m just not sure that the numbers will justify the money difference, I might be wrong on that though. I just didn’t get why one guy was rated very high and the other guy is rated so low. I really hope that the Reds don’t just roll with the current outfield.
I think we can give the guy a break on his batting stats this season since he was coming off Tommy John surgery and basically had to go through spring training mid-season. His career BA is .268 and .313 OBP. He's an offensive upgrade to Iglesias when it comes to driving in runs and a wash defensively, so would be an overall upgrade at SS. I'm assuming he would cost a lot more though.
