    Get a durn CF w speed speed speed teach heem to bunt bunt bunt and bat him 9th. Lays down 1 successful bunt per game bats .250 and steals 2nd you got risp with top of the batting order coming on.

    CF position is solved.

    Small ball wins championships. Whip.the LAD slam the NYY and NYM. Glory is ours!

    We'll have to consult the data to be sure, but I believe there may be some flaws in your reasoning

    Isn't Michael Bourn on the payroll doing broadcasts? He only just turned 40. I'm sure he's still got some wheels.

    I'll stay in the same category and take ideas not supported by the data for $400.

    Next which relievers step up.
    Scott Taylor was awesome for us 2024. If he shows and Hader n Abreu pop that leather then we might be cha-ching money gold.
