Left Fielder/Infielder Howie Kendrick

Howie Kendrick is an interesting case. At 33, it is clear that he is not going to be apart of the long term success of the ball club.

Kendrick will likely serve as a stop gap until Nick Williams and Roman Quinn are ready to take over the reigns full time. However, if the front office feels that neither Quinn or Williams are ready, it may be possible that you see Kendrick in red pinstripes in 2018.
