And they have to have bullpen help. An upper tier LH starter wouldn't hurt either. Like I've said many times before the window is so small for small market teams ! And I feel that window will be open over next couple seasons Votto or no Votto.
They screw around now how long will it be before the Yankees have Castillo ? The Dodgers have Aquino ? so on and so on.
I really don’t see how they will improve in leaps and bounds. Iglesias was better than Didi last year so that probably won’t be a drastic improvement in numbers. The OF free agents aren’t gonna be a ton better than Winker. A lot is gonna depend on rebound seasons offensively. Adding a couple of arms to the pen will help and won’t be too expensive. I’m of the opinion that picking up another very good starter is the way to go, someone more established than Mahle. Mahle would be a great plan B.
