Now that the regular season is all but over, let's move on to the playoffs. Good luck to *me*!
Meanwhile, I am looking to balance my roster at the edges and maybe pick up some draft picks at the same time. The players I'm offering are all going to be rostered next year if they don't move, so I'm not offering any players I am going to cut. On the other hand, none of these guys will be *too* expensive:
TOR Biggio: Qualifies full time at 2B and RF, 338 PAs of league average bat.  Started out horrendous and finished very strong. I've given up reverse engineering defensive metrics, but he was a C range at 2B this year but probably will not be quite as good next year. 

SD Grisham: Terrible BA, but does everything else well: walks, some power, some speed, defense.  I'm overloaded in CF and want to rebalance.
CHN Gomes: A decent C with a plus arm, OK bat, good vLHP.  He plays, but I've also got Ruiz and Adams.
PIT/PHI  Castro: Decent utility player who qualifies full time at 2B and SS and carded at 3b. Truly dreadful vs RHP but 821OPS vLH, so could be the short end of a platoon or PH/defensive replacement.  Only 24 years old
MIA Moore Passable reverse LHRP. 60/15 K/BB.

TOR Garcia 79/15 K/BB in 66 IP. 3.39 FIP. Which is to say, a good back end RH bullpen piece.
Looking for 3-4 round value for Biggio, Grisham, Gomes, 5-6 for Castro, 6-7 for Garcia, Moore. I'd prefer draft picks, but I am going to need at least one more passable SP so I would be interested in that as well. Go shopping with me here and skip the uncertainty of filling your bench and bullpen at the back end of the draft!
Also, I would take an offer for NYA Cabrera. He had a truly dreadful season but he is only 24 and the Yankees still believe in him, at least as a super-utility guy, so I am planning to keep him around and see what happens. Still, I would sell low-ish. I don't think I recoup the #3 I spent on him but I'm not dumping him for a 7 or thereabouts either.
