Andrew McCutchen
Andrew McCutchen may not be the player that he once was, but he is still the type of veteran outfielder that can help a team down the stretch.
The former NL MVP still has some pop in his bat and enough speed to be a weapon. Although he has moved over to left with the Phillies, McCutchen is capable of playing all three outfield spots, even if he would best be considered a last resort in center at this point.
Even if his defense is declining, the bat is still there. His .227/.346/.426 batting line may not seem impressive, but that is worth a 114 OPS+ this season. He has also hit 13 homers and nine doubles while stealing five bases, showing the type of pop and speed that a team could use.
In theory, McCutchen would be more than a rental. He has a $15 million option for next season, although that is unlikely to be picked up. However, for a team looking for an upgrade, either in the outfield or at the designated hitter spot, McCutchen could help over the final few months.
Andrew McCutchen may not be the player he once was, but the Philadelphia Phillies outfielder could still help a team looking to make a playoff push.
