The following pitchers are on the wire: Zac Gallen and Cavalli and Warren
1. Would you add any?
Taking a step back, I have 4 left fielders: Stowers, Abreu, Varsho and Stanton.
1. Do you agree that one needs to be cut and pick up one of the above pitchers or try and improve my hitters?
2. Who would you cut?
3.Do nothing
4. Who would you start in LF or is this a platoon situation?
Thanks so much!!
I am so grateful for all your help!!
I forgot to add Cody Ponce besides Gallen, Cavalli and Warren . Would you pick one?
Thanks!!
