The entire collection of starting pitchers is extremely inexperienced despite having a couple bright spots.
Greene and Abbott have done well this year, and Ashcraft has been getting back to form since returning from his injury.

No pitcher added is guaranteed to make a positive impact, but this might be the best team we've seen in a decade, so I hope they do something to solidify the pitching in the next few weeks.

Agree

Even if Greene returns to form and Ashcraft gets it fully together, they're still going to need at least 1 more experienced starter. Who knows when or even if Lodolo will be back and if he'll be effective? They need more decent innings from starters. 

I just feel to be any kind of semi serious playoff team they have to shore up the pitching staff.
