Yes, it means being honest about what you have. He already has a left-handed bat off the bench...his name is Dexter Fowler. The problem is they will want to try him again as a starter because they are paying him like a starter.
Similarly you need to decide who your utility guy is going to be Gyorko or Munoz. My bet is they will go with Munoz because in their minds he can also play the outfield. Then there is Martinez, who really is just a right-handed bat off the bench. If we are sticking him anywhere in the field as a starter then we suck.
