BCB Mailbag 54: Looking ahead to the offseason

Happy weekend, friends! I hope everyone’s stomachs have settled after the large quantities of food consumed on Thursday, and that you’re ready to dive into this week’s questions:

Rick Auerbach invites you to 1972 asks:

Which new-to-the-40 outfielder do you think will have a longer major league career - Tyrone Taylor or Troy Stokes, Jr. ?

I have long been a big fan of Stokes, but in the grand scheme of things, the most probable outcome for both guys is a bench piece. In that case I think Taylor’s superior defensive abilities will - especially as more of a true center fielder - will help keep him hanging around the big leagues longer.
