Dbacks direction
Posted: Fri Oct 19, 2012 12:11 pm
The Dbacks are basically set for another run at the N.L.W. title with a solid player at all spots, including rotation and bullpen.
But the problem, (just like the real Yankees) is that the power hitting that works so well for the regular season, especially playing in Arizona does not work in the playoffs where the strike-outs tend to pile up.
To try to fix the problem, we will consider moving long time Dbacks - Mark Teixeira, and Rickie Weeks (3rd in HR for 2B), if we can find something that changes the 'balance' of the ball-club.
On that same note, we would move Tommy Hanson if we could find a groundball pitcher that would SIM a little better in Arizona.
If you don't have the type of players I'm looking for to help now, I would consider high end prospects that I could parlay into players that will help balance the ball club out.
