This is what makes them so good. They don't have any obvious holes anywhere on the roster

Still long ways away, but I just hope we're hot going into the playoffs. I worry about the team (hitters) succumbing to playoff pressure. I would like to add one more big bat if possible.

Definitely would like to add some sort of a power bat and a better utility bench player instead of Monasterio.

Just watched the long cut highlights and holy hell did JP Crawford have a brutal game. Dude looked like he doc ellis'd the game.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

I have a hard time not seeing 1B as a hole relative to the rest of the team. Hoskins is totally serviceable but...that's kinda it + his health is a question mark, Bauers is the definition of replaceable (although I think he's fine for what he is), and I just don't take Vaughn seriously.

Not saying we need to break the bank for Suarez (not a fan of the defensive shuffling we'd need to do unless he really wants to play 1B) but considering we could use more power in general and our 1B spot has just above replacement level this season, that's what I'm looking at if I'm Arnold this deadline. I'd at least see what guys like Naylor/O'Hearn go for.
