Hot Commodities πŸ”₯

Jose SiriTBOF$35-$50Premium power speed guy despite the poor hit tool.
Marcell OzunaATLOF$10-$20Good power and started 7 of 8 games for elite lineup.
Oswaldo CabreraNYYOF$10-$20Could be CI/OF soon and is getting decent PT, can chip in 12-12 HR/SB pace and good schedule.

Tanner HouckBOSP$12-$24Nice RHP vs RHB with his big slider.
Gavin StoneLADP$15-$50His changeup has worked well in the MiLB but he will have a big adjustment in the MLB as a FB/CH guy without a big breaking ball, plus team context.
Miguel CastroARIP$35-$55PT Closer in ARI for now, decent-ish skills.
Dylan FloroMIAP$10-$30Closer for now since Puk is out.
