Chris Burke may benefit from Astro-Rockies trade
With W. Taveras gone to Colorado Burke may get regular time as the Astros CF this year. Burke hit 9HR, had 11SBs and hit .276 in 366 ABs last year. Regular time may make him a 20-20 threat. He's also shown some good progression in OBP (.200, .309, .347) over the last three years and SLG (.059, .368, .418). The first year stats are from a very small sample size but the last two years came in 318 and 366 respectively. That he'll keep his 2B eligibility is a nice bonus.
