My big point is that adding 1 above average guy to a MLB team isn't going to change fortunes by that much.
To make the playoffs in baseball, you need 2 good pitchers atleast. And about 2-3 good hitters and then 2-3 above average guys.
Adding one player to a team that only needs to fill 2 or 3 holes (OF and 2nd base, maybe catcher) is a good start and can change fortunes.
2 good pitchers? They have potentially the best starting 3 in the NL and almost definitely in the NL Central
2-3 good hitters? Averages again? maybe not so much... power and potential for runs? most definitely
starting lineup
Votto...need him back to the old but still a productive OBP and batter
Suarez...2nd in NL home runs and 103 RBI
Moose... 35 homers and 87 RBI
Galvis... 23 homers and 70 RBI and a solid SS
Senzel... Potential...the kid needs to get it going...still a decent rookie campaign coming of injury
Aquino... I will extend his stats even though it would not happen.. 56 games, 19 homers, 47 RBIS...times that by 3 57 homers and 120+ RBI
Barnhart need upgrade
Winker need upgrade
