Still think pitching is the largest opportunity with the team and may ultimately be the Achilles heel. Not confident that the team did enough in that area to improve on their results from last season. It’s pretty well known that the young position players are the strength of the team, so expect no surprises from that group. The only factor that I could see pushing this team above .500 is if young pitchers Drey Jameson, Ryne Nelson, Tommy Henry, and Brand Pfaddt prove that they have staying power in an MLB rotation. That’s a tall ask.

I’m just not a believer in the starting rotation and bullpen, despite the improvements in the latter.
