POSITION REPORT: First Base
27-year-old Benny Conde (4/4/3) would be the starter if I can't sign a FA. He's yet to get an at-bat in the bigs. Conde is a switch hitter and is somewhat intriguing actually. He's hit over .300 in each of his last four years in the minors, with his OPS .788 or better. His last three seasons have been at AAA. The only other 1B has never played above AA, and looks to have no future in the bigs.
OVERALL THOUGHTS: If I don't have enough money to fill all my needs (a STRONG possibility), Conde might have at least earned himself a look at 1B.
