I hope they decide to be more active in adding this offseason.  A few smart additions could go a long way, and the cap space will be bountiful.

Oh I still like Benson and I'm pretty sure he's at a minimum a good/great bench player, spot starter in RF and DH type. I just wish he would start hitting LH pitchers a little better.

But there I go back to my main complaint about Bell and his musical lineup theory. Perhaps Benson would do better vs. lefties if he got the chance?
