Outlook:Offensively they should be about average at best, Depth is still needed and that depends on how Triunfel does if he is not dealt for a bonafide ML 1B or just might move him to 1B altogether. The Rotation has talent to do something decent, but will they even try? The bullpen is a trainwreck that could cost the rotation a lot of wins. It needs a lot of fixing.

Prediction: 70-92, 4th place


Comments Welcome.

70 wins with that bullpen would be really impressive

Even as bad as the class of free agent relievers ended up being, there was still ample arms better than what you have got going on. And my guys are still available whenever you want to offer anything besides Dick Tracy.

Yeah but I didn't want anyone over 30. Id rather build within but the MRs are scarce in the draft and next years crop could be better than this years. And the one CL i did go after got signed for 11.1 million dollars. Which was twice as much as my big FA signing, Scott Olsen.

Ages being 26, 26, 27, 24, 26...

didn't even see a 3 let a lone a 30.

I was talking about the FA class. Not your team. And still I don't think i have the pieces to get any of those players at the moment.
