You could say the same thing about your #2, Mayo.

Worst case scenario Mayo is a decent first baseman, probably better than Mountcastle. He’d likely be acceptable in RF with a cannon for an arm. Third base is a best case scenario, but that would almost certainly mean he’d be playing for another team.

How do you figure the worst case scenario is that he is probably better than Mountcastle?

How does that work exactly?

I'd say worst case scenario is he's a dh.

Article from the BTV people about things shaping up nicely for Giolito and Eduardo's GM's, with the Braves and Rays recent run of injuries to A level guys.

They guesstimate names like Junior Caminero and Spencer Jones as possible centerpieces for the best rentals.

MLB.com top 100 has Junior Caminero at #60 and Spencer Jones was a 1st rounder currently unranked.  Jones seems a 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder' type IMO because the K% at A+ dings him a lot for me (but that's not his lower level track record).  I'm hesitant to outbid a Caminero offering, but we can certainly outbid a Spencer Jones package.
