    I just want another veteran, specifically Gerrit Cole. I don’t think we need a Rendon. We need someone to wash away the sins of CK and Kenley. Seriously, this has been our downfall year after year.

    Pitching is going to get a boost it looks like this year with May, Gonsolin and Gray, though Gonsolin is more a back of the rotation guy from everything I can tell. Definitely need to add another power arm to the rotation that can carry us through the postseason. We do need another bat though, the pitching has rarely been the major problem, it's the bats falling apart on the big stage. We just point to the pitchers for blowing something when we really should have been up by 4 more runs. A guy like Rendon would be perfect, but beyond him there really is not anyone else on the FA market that screams upgrade.

    He got really lucky early and benefited from a lot of hard contact finding gloves. He has the chance to be something more, but he is going to have to refine his secondary pitches as well as his FB control to really be anything more than that.

    I guess I just don't want another work in progress. We need to get reinforcements now. We shouldn't be waiting another 5 years to win 1 WS. Get the Rendons. Get the Coles or Strasbergs now. The Guggs can coast and make their money during the rebuild....but it won't happen if there is no WS win anytime soon and then go-to a rebuild.

    Our offseason acquisitions will be 2 elevators and a walkstreet of extremely overpriced, shitty food.
