They have to also get one solid corner OF, and maybe sign Pham another year and see what John Rave can do? I doubt they make a big splash though...

I really hope you're wrong re: Garcia. While I like him as a player in general, at third base he's... just so bad offensively... a .281 OBP? Shoot me. No power. Glad he is good with the glove over there, but he's a shortstop playing third, he should be good.

We just have too many black holes in the line up - which was laid bare in the playoffs. Have to at least try and upgrade over there.
