The last of the keeper reviews, Vancouver looks like they might put themselves back into contention after a down year in 2007. The Fist have an impressive rotation anchored by Jake Peavy and should have plenty of offense, featuring Chase Utley, David Ortiz, and newly-acquired Todd Helton. The Fist also have a lot of extra picks in the 2008 draft.Shaky Keeper: Greg Maddux, pitcher. Maddux was probably kept for sentimental reasons more than anything else, though as a fifth starter, you can't complain. Maddux has been showing his age the last few seasons, even though he had a solid 2007 campaign.
Surprise Castoff: Jose Guillen, outfielder. Vancouver had a lot of players to protect and although Guillen would have been a nice way to round out the outfield, the Fist had to cut him. Guillen had an off year last year but should latch on with someone in the draft.
