I haven’t read past page one yet, but right off the get go I would focus on major pieces, not complimentary pieces (like a 4th OFer for example). DD has been very good at acquiring pieces we need at the deadlines (even w/ Nunez’s injury, which wasn’t foreseeable). Fill them in as we need to.
I agree we need a big bat (a Stanton, or a Votto). I agree that we aren’t a big offense team. I do think we are close to one though. One player, like the ones mentioned above, could bring this offense back to where it was. One player. Not 2 4th OFers and 3 Utility players. We may need two big acquisitions (a big bat through trade, & a #2/#3 SP via FA).
