League of Legends: How every LCS team can upgrade their roster

Out: Raymond “Wiggily” Griffin
In: Blaber
Like I said above with Echo Fox, there are a lot of teams that could be looking to upgrade their junglers and CLG should be at the front of the line. To say Wiggily had a rough go in his rookie split would be a massive understatement. He posted an atrocious 169.7 gold per minute on average while dying 2.67 times per game (ahead of only Rush and Contractz).
He also did the least damage, by far of any LCS jungler other than Andy “AnDa” Hoang, averaged a gold deficit at 15, and had some of the lowest kill participation numbers of any LCS jungler, along with some of the highest death shares. All of this adds up to Wiggly being, statistically, the worst jungler in the LCS and CLG desperately needing to upgrade him in order to bolster the hopes of making playoffs next split.
Unfortunately, there aren’t a ton of incredibly attractive options for them to select from. Assuming Akaadian does stay on TSM, CLG could inquire about Dardoch (with whom they have a history), AnDa (only slightly better than Wiggily) or another young jungler like Fragas or Panda. If CLG is opting for stability and aggressiveness, and Blaber wants a starting spot on an org that has aspirations of making noise in the LCS, this could be a match made in heaven.
