This team is blessed not to have holes in the everyday lineup like other team’s. Sure an upgrade at SS would be great im sure there is a team with a young SS who is blocked at the Major League level right now. Something will work out im sure. Another starter would be nice for depth with over 35 million coming off books with Fried and Morton im sure they can do something.
How's Lucas Braun doing?
