I think it's going to come down to what roles Nieman and Price are going to fill. Jackson never got an ounce of run support last seasn, has shown some real concentration issues and an overall lack of mental toughness. Perhaps it's just a maturity deal, but he's definately a question mark. Sonnestine got through with blue smoke and mirrors last year, he's not great but serviceable. If it took both to land Ankiel, I wouldn't be overly concerned, but if I could get away with just one, I agree Sonny should go. I hope if it's both, they're looking at a DH or some prospects to be packaged in. There is nothing in the free agent market that looks like a fit and RF is a huge problem (I think Zorbrist and Henske will be gone)
