What you stated is likely correct, but it doesnt mean a whole lot to me. Can be argued that we have the 4th best offense in the division too. The team is transitioning out of a rebuild and improvement is coming.

The rotation improved A LOT from what it was last year and should only get better with arms coming through the system. We arent going to jump ahead of the Yankees, Rays and Red Sox in one off-season but major steps have been made.

What a world... but I'm not worried about Gurriel at all in LF.
CF is a major issue that needs to be solved.

Gurriel is solid, I can't believe there's talk about turning him into a pitcher.

CF and RF are absolute disasters right now.

Hernandez is actually a pretty good hitter, he’s had 2 solid seasons in a row and was lights out the 2nd half of 2019 (142 ops+ !!!). Grichuk was pretty good 2 years ago and could easily bounce back. Between the 2 of them, RF should be covered just fine.

We do have huge problem defensively in CF and moving Hernandez there again isn’t the solution, but RF is far from a disaster. 1B is a much bigger question mark right now imo.
