Agree with you here. I think we should head back towards the glory days in terms of how this team is built. Good to great speed everywhere, gap hitters with decent power, solid defense and good pitching. Don't know much about Kearns, but have heard on the radio he is not a speedy guy. Unless he's a monster hitting 40 homers and driving in a 100+ runs consistently, we don't need that kind of guy here.
If these other two are speedy and can play good defense, I'm all for it. I've got a feeling that Affeldt is quickly going to become trade fodder. I can't help but feel like there is still interest out there for MacDougal as well.
