Gallo may take LF too especially if Guzman has 1B. That means two big arms in OF to balance out DDJ. Have to think Calhoun will get significant time in lineup. Too many DHs though

Decent thought......Gallo has become a very effective "Super-Utility-Player" hasn't he?

He's shown athletic ability to handle 3rd/1st/COF for sure. What a luxury he is now; seriously.

Gotta give Hamels his due......Struggled early for sure......But righted the ship and finished strong.......Not great, but decent outing......Certainly better than he's been recently.

Pitching good enough to win the div and beyond for 2018 is going to be a problem. The rotation as well as the pen
will be a hurdle to clear. Position players not so much.

But we gotta keep him out there b/c he's so damn strong up the middle defensively........:L

DT if we sign high dollar FA pitching this bodes well for DDJ in CF. I think their eyes are open for CF market but yes pitching is more a priority

I disagree on both of your sentences.

Don I think they are very open to a lockdown CF to sign but I would rather they pickup SP. if money is spent on SP the to me it makes more sense to replace CF in house. Just an opinion

Well, let me ask then....who might that lock-down CF be?

2nd question: who doesn't think we need starting pitching?

But most importantly..........we're all just yakking our opinion.....that's what makes this site so important. :pound:

And here comes the closer-of-closers......2 years ago I'd bet you $100 this guy wouldn't have been in the ML, regardless of team, in 2017........Now, here we are seasons removed and Sir Claude has been terrific for us.

Better hope Banny doesn't abuse him.
