Jon Jay, CF
If Rajai Davis is out of the Indians’ price range, perhaps the front office could look at free agent Jon Jay.
Jay missed two months with a fractured forearm and was limited to just 90 games for the San Diego Padres. When he did play, Jay compiled a .291/.339/.389 slash line.
He plays center field and could bat lead off. Once upon time, Jay could steal a base, swiping 19 bags during the 2012 campaign. He has 18 TOTAL since then, but you’d have to wonder if he could be more a threat playing the run-happy Indians.
Jay should fall within the Indians price range, as he’s missed significant time during the past two seasons.
