Do you think this team can compete next year with Hall at 3B? No, which is why I've advocated going hard after Blalock in other threads. Not sure how good Gamel would be thrown into playing RF right away. I agree with Al- Braun is very good in left, it's not particularly fair to move him again now. If they do indeed trade Hart this offseason, it still seems likely that Gamel will be given a full season at AAA to figure out RF. Heck, a lot of people thought Braun would take some significant time to become a good LFer, but he's been great in left this year, so it's not unreasonable to think that Gamel could catch on fairly quickly.
