Aaron Rowand: Overrated?
2008-02-12 19:19:00 One of this winter's biggest free agent winners was CF Aaron Rowand, formerly of the Philadelphia Phillies now current mantle holder of Most Expensive San Francisco Giant. In his walk year, Rowand put up career high power numbers with 27 HRs and 89 RBIs while batting 5th behind All-Stars Chase Utley and Ryan Howard. Depsite maintaining his spot in the heart of the Giants' line-up, Rowand is showing up as one a player likely to be over-valued in upcoming fantasy baseball drafts. I agree to an extent. I strongly doubt he can match his HR totals away from the friendly confines of Citizens Bank Park. Afterall, he hit 17 or his 27 bombs in those confines. Is an expectation of 20 fair? His AVG may suffer without .400 OBP players like Utley and Howard in front of him, but I am not so sure on the RBIs. While he won't have a pair like them in front of him, he could get as many opportunities because no one in front of him on the Giants is likely t...

Aaron Rowand Signs With The Giants...
2007-12-12 23:05:00 Well, the Giants got the impact bat and centerfielder they needed as Aaron Rowand agreed to a $60 million, five-year contract. He is coming off his best season yet, earning his first Gold Glove award and All-Star selection while helping the Phillies to the NL East title. He batted .309 with 27 home runs and career bests of 89 RBIs, 105 runs, 189 hits, 45 doubles in 161 games.While manager Bruce Bochy had said Rajai Davis would get a chance to earn the job come spring training, Rowand was brought in to start in center. That means Dave Roberts likely will shift from center to left field to replace departed home run king Barry Bonds, Randy Winn will stay put in right while Davis and some of the other young outfielders share time in a reserve role."Aaron is an all-around player who is coming into his prime and helps us check off two boxes -- an extremely talented defensive center fielder and a middle of the order presence," general manager Brian Sabean said. "His ability in center field...

Dodgers Pursuing Aaron Rowand
2007-11-15 19:21:00 Buster Olney's blog today had some good rumors to digest. Olney writes that the Dodgers are making a "heavy play" for Aaron Rowand. Apparently they love the idea of adding a good character guy to the clubhouse. They'd be paying $25MM for Rowand and Juan Pierre in their outfield for the next several years. The Phillies are making a "big play" for Mike Lowell. This certainly doesn't jive with the speculation that the Phils only have $10MM to spend and it's going toward pitching. By the way, Ruben Amaro Jr. ruled out the possibility of signing Torii Hunter. Olney has an exec source who believes Hunter will sign with the Rangers for six years and $90MM. Olney doesn't see Kenny Rogers apologizing to the Rangers anytime soon. Mike Cameron has a better chance of re-signing with the Padres, now that his 2008 season will be reduced by 15% in playing time. Six teams are in on Matt Clement, but he's still expected to land in San Diego. T...

Kenny Williams Loves Aaron Rowand
2007-06-04 17:31:00 Several years ago, Billy Beane described Erubiel Durazo as his "Holy Grail". Beane had been in pursuit of the young slugger, coveting his plate discipline and projecting him as a middle-of-the-order type for the A's lineup. At this point, White Sox general manager Kenny Williams' pursuit of Aaron Rowand is beginning to reach similar status. From Phil Rodgers in the Chicago Tribune: If the Phillies are willing to try to get Mike MacDougal straightened out, the reliever could be a centerpiece in a White Sox deal for Aaron Rowand. The Phillies desperately need bullpen help and are letting teams know Rowand could be available in the right deal. The speedy Michael Bourn seems ready to move into a regular role in Philadelphia's outfield. The outfield is one of the few places the Phillies actually have some depth/interchangeable parts, and with Aaron Rowand's average hovering around .325 for most of the season so far, the Phillies may be thinking it's time to &qu...
