2001 POSITION REPORT: Shortstop

Eduardo Fuensanta (6/8/5), 33, returns for the final year of his $8.2M contract. He slugged .486 and played great defense. We have a four-star prospect in 22-year-old Robert Pauli (Good/Fair/Avg). Pauli has "B" range, but still appears to be a few years away from the bigs. He hit .277 in his third year of “A” ball last year. Maybe he’s finally ready for AA this year.

OVERALL THOUGHTS: Well, Fuensanta is in his last year, and no prospect is on the immediate horizon. Of course I’ll go with Fuensanta this year, and probably end up signing a free agent for next season, when he’ll be 34 and probably looking for a several-year deal.
