you're freaking brilliant. i didn't consider this before. i certainly considered that they're whiners and losers. and i certainly considered that bullpen is still a HUGE unaddressed problem for them. but i didn't consider lineup. you're right. that lineup had a hard time scoring runs last season...WITH alou and sosa. take those guys away, and who would want to be a part of that?? i used to have a super high opinion of dusty baker. no longer.
