Don't let them get to ya. What I think would be best for the team. . Fire Hendry (or let him go, whatever) even though I've been a suppoter, we need a smarter GM. One who says. "WE NEED TO ADD SOME OBP GUYS TO ALL THESE SLUGGERS". Trade Jones and make Pie your staple in CF next year. Trade or aquire a decent slugging LH bat who is good against LHer and RHer but more so against LHer. Get him in RF, SS, 2B, or C. (IE, somewhere where there is not already somone really good). That way you have 2 LH in your lineup. RF would be the easiest since RF is where it's easy to get a "good bat". Make Theroit your everyday 2B, and get a good all around SS. OBP is the more important stat in this aquisition. Much as I love the guy, trade barret and get a really good defensive C but one that is atleast decent offensively. Trade Zambrano for a good prospect. Use this money to "correct" this offense. By adding some high OBP guys. With Hill and Lilly being pretty good. With one of our young prospects hopefully coming up. We could try to go out and get an exciting young ML ready P or OF player with all of the young talent we have. There are alot of things that can be done to improve. And I think it starts with letting Hendry go.
