They don't need to clean house, but some changes to add some depth and balance to the lineup would be great. Bader was a great start.

Yeah, after calming down a bit, I realize I may have overreacted a bit in my previous take. Obviously it will be nigh impossible to move guys like Turner, Harper and Nola due to their contracts. Personally I would not re-sign Schwarber and Marsh while looking to move Castellanos and Bohm. Re-signing Bader should be top priority. Also, I'd really like to see what they have in guys like Painter and Crawford. It's time to inject some youth into the roster.

Love all those guys, but I agree with you except on Schwarber. If he was a position player at his age, maybe, but where are you going to find someone to give you close to what he does as a DH? I think he and JT are definitely guys you want back.

I believe they should bring Ranger back if the number isn't ridiculous. Guy is a money pitcher. They have to add some spark to the back end of the lineup, and they must get a couple of bullpen arms.

Time to reallocate the payroll around. The top end guys do not pull their weight.

Bryce is a Vegas guy. He'd look good in an A's uniform.
