Though in this group of players, Winn and Upton are very close.
I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.
Don't forget to include
defense in your calculations of your choice.
So...I should vote for the guy who jumps over cars then?
I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.
If I had one season to put together the best team, I'd take Winn
Simply because he was so much more consistent than Upton. It’s not as if he wasn’t a plus defender also. Upton at his best is better than Winn at his best, but at least with Winn you knew what you were getting. Of course, if I had 24 year old Upton vs 24 year old Winn to choose from to keep for 5 years, I’d go with Upton.

Winn
Winn only had 2 seasons with an OPS of over .704 with the Rays. His career did not really take off until 2002 which was his last year with the Rays.
