Carlos Lee may be playing there, but the team also has Brett Wallace, who may or may not be ready. Bourn being more talented is relevant, but Sanchez is cheaper and cost-controlled for more years, which makes up for that. As for Milledge, I am not a fan. He can't play center field (would probably be no better than Coghlan), and at this point he can only hit lefties. I'll pass. Marvin,

The Astros don't need a 1st baseman and Bourn has more talent than Sanchez. The Marlins should take a shot with Milledge. I don’t think the Astros would trade Bourn for Sanchez.

In particular the Marlins would have to get a well above average season from Javier Vazquez and a breakout campaign from either Stanton or Morrison. In addition, their Coghlan in CF plan would have to work out, which is a tough thing to depend on. It doesn't mean it won't be a fun year to watch, but it certainly will be difficult. Mike,
