It says they are in contact with Ozuna, Castellanos, Dickerson and Calhoun.

I would gladly take any one of those first three although their defense is all pretty suspect. As an Angels fan since 1979(#2 to the Reds), Calhoun is merely a slightly faster, better Schebler but comes with stellar defense.

All in all, though . . . I can still live with an Ervin/Winker LF. With Moustakous added and a full season of Aquino, this could be enough. All that they really need is for Votto to not drag them down again and people will forget about LF.

I would like a more consistent bat in LF for sure. But as you say perhaps the platoon guys will be enough ?

I hope they move Votto well down in the lineup, 6th or 7th. You just can't have a guy with 38 RBI's in the heart of the order. Unless of course he rebounds from his 2 season long slump.
