Angel Pagan is a name we haven't talked about but who holds some interest for me.
He's old and has had injury issues in the past, but when healthy, he's a quality leadoff option who also switch hits.
Would be an upgrade from Cuthbert as a rotating DH option, could play RF or LF, too. And offer a switch hitting option at the top of the lineup.
Vs RH
Pagan - DH
Moustakas - 3B
Cain - RF (or swap with Pagan once a week or twice a week)
Hosmer - 1B
Perez - C
Gordon - LF
2B - merrifield
CF - Dyson
SS - Escobar
Against lefties, Dyson sits for Orlando or Dozier.
I like that lineup better with a proven middle of he order guy like Holliday to protect Hosmer and improve the middle of the lineup, but this is a cheaper and more versatile option.
I'd KC does end up trading Cain, Pagan might be a good short-term filler for him.
