I understand that I am a minority of one on here...lol.
I dont want anymore prospects. We don't get a trophy for having the most prospects. We already have more prospects than we can ever use.
The Yankees and Dodgers and other big market clubs have money. It would be stupid if they didn't spend money to acquire big name, big contract MLB players. IMO its kinda stupid not to use our prospects to acquire good, young MLB players.
Our team is young and under control for at least three years for the most part. Under normal circumstances a well heeled team would spend money to augment this core lineup. We should do the same, using our prospects.
I really like what we have done over the last two years in acquiring young talent. But we still have a hot mess at first base and/or we need another quality OF.
Our projected fWAR at 1B is .9, the worst in the division.
In CF its .9. Only KC is worse.
In RF its .7. Point freaking SEVEN. Only Detroit is worse.
We have the grand total of two players in the first base and outfield mix that have a projected plus offensive WAR...Rosario and Naylor.
We have the wherewithal to make it better, and if we don't use it, we lose it anyway.
