    Good Switch Hitters?

    It is getting near the tradedead line in my Franchise and I am wanting to mix up my lineup a bit. My batters aren't being consistant and it is costing me games. Some are hitting well over .300 while others are hovering around .200. I am hoping to trade for some good switch hitters and have a lot of talent to trade around with.

    Who are some good switch hitters I can aim to land? Looking to add depth too so I can use all levels of talent (Superstar to spot starter)

    I few I have identified:
    RF C. Beltran
    SS J. Reyes
    SS J. Lowrie

    Something along those lines... Looking for am iddle of the lineup ti=ype guy if possible but not picky.

    Nick Swisher, Angel Pagan off the top of my head. Swisher will give you some power, Pagan gives you good speed.

        If you don't mind his age, the Braves are usually willing to trade Chipper Jones

          If your looking for a catcher, Saltalamacchia is pretty good...

            Jose Reyes is very good of course. Jed Lowrie is becoming one of my favorite SS in the game. I love his last name because of Bad Boys movies, LOL.

              I traded for Jed Lowrie in my Dbacks franchise coming into 2013 since I let Stephen Drew go, he doesn't seem to be doing too bad considering we're just a few games into Spring Training.

                Carlos Beltran is my favorite. Right on his heels, though, is Ben Zobrist. He's super fundamentally sound, plays every position (a bigger plus than you would think) has a great arm, and once you figure him out, is pretty easy to hit with.

                  If your running a AL league or doing the DH in the NL. Kendrys Morales was doing great 4 me. Baiting cleanup through June at a .315 clip, 15 round troopers, and quite a few RBI's. A monster with runners in scoring position. Is only able to play 1st at most 2 days in a row though.

                      That isn't a true statement...so don't take it too seriously. He played 152 games at 1B in 2009, and was injured in May of 2010 and was out all of 2011 (which prevents him from playing 1B.)

                      And energy in this game has very little impact on player performance (at least from my observations.)

                          Chase Headley is very solid.

                              I think he means the "in-game" player. Sometimes you need to put player's durability up in the 90s to make them worth having them on the team.
