The outfield questions

[grampahol]

I think putting Castillanos in RF will be a huge mistake being he had one of the worst defensive lines in the position in the league. That's a position that needs a strong arm with good defensive skills. Aquino fits that bill as does Schebler for that matter. While I still have plenty of doubt about Schebler last year was his only really bad season so I don't think the book is closed on him just yet. He was never my favorite player, but he was never my least favorite either. At the very least he could be a good defensive replacement if nothing else.
Here's where i think they open the season..
1. Akiyama-CF
2. Votto-1st
3 or 5. Mosstakas-2nd
4. Suarez-3rd (if ready)
5 or 3. Castellanos-LF
6. Aquino-RF
7 or 8. Barnhart-C
8 or 7.Galvis-SS
9. BILLY HAMILTON-SP (not really)

Senzel, Winker, Ervin, VanMeter, etc. are all decent depth as well as Farmer and they WILL need depth in case of injuries, illnesses, days off, poor performance, etc..and that doesn't even mention who might come up from AAA or AA or trades during the season. I'd like to see Votto moved from the 2 hole, but Bell seems absolutely determined to keep him there.
If the 1-6 holes all perform well and hit above expectations that's a hell of a murderers row for any pitcher to face.
