      Wasn't saying exactly 20/15 20/20 exactly. Just a ball park figure or category

      I've considered him. He was raking before the wrist injury then he wasn't the same when he came back. There was actually a period of May-August where he only hit 1 HR in 67 games while he was playing thru the injury.

      He did hit .302 with 8 HR and 9 SB in 78 games before the all star break.

      In the end I think he's 20-15 this year. Without the wrist injury last year he probably hits 25 HR and he was always supposed to be a future batting champion. So at least there is upside and position flexibility if you take a chance on him. Maybe an Alex Gordon type year?

      Cameron Maybin has a chance this year. It's his second full year so his power number should go up. More likely 15/30 or 15/40 though.

      a 30/15 guy is worth more than a 20/20 anyway.

      20/20 is a nice milestone in real life but it's meaningless for fantasy. it doesn't matter if a guy falls a little short on one side if he goes way over on the other. As long as he posts respectable numbers in both he's a good power speed option.

      People tend to overpay to get a 20/20 guy but there isn't a lot of them (McCutchen), but there is a lot of people that can offer smaller amounts of power with their speed or speed with their power that are just as valuable and a lot cheaper.
