2001 POSITION REPORT: Second Base

Rodney Campbell (6/5/7), acquired by trade last year, won his first Gold Glove last year and hit .280. He’s 30 and in his prime. 22-year-old Alan "The Hammer" Dye (Good/Good/Good) is almost ready. The Hammer is rated the #18 prospect in all of baseball, and is almost ready (5/4/5).

OVERALL THOUGHTS: Clearly, "The Hammer" is the future here. I’d like to see him show some of that “Good” power in AAA before I promote him. He began to show some late last year, slugging .467. I really hope he can hit with power in AAA the first half of the season, so I can trade Campbell, who is in the last year of his contract, before the deadline. I would be GREAT to be able to call up The Hammer AND get something good for Campbell!
