We need to address the SP issue with a trade.

If they do well enough we can start winning those games where we only score one run, and perhaps they'll allow for ties for those games we don't bother to plate a run (because we're facing a good pitcher).
So I agree, but I don't think we can afford to not address the lack of run production. I'd say we could cork the bats, but with the way the break these days we'd get caught sooner than later.
