    • If that's a real opinion then its you who's the suspect...
    • Are you referring to Kjerstad?
    • I don't think you can ever have more pitching and as I say, the better and better the team gets the smaller the margins are for upgrading, so have to think about it pretty differently as we move into this stage, IMO. Fact is ~.800 OPS 1B don't retrieve that much on the trade market. We know postseason is something of a crapshoot but we also know that Wettland-Rivera-Nelson Rivera-Nelson-Stanton can help increase your odds a little bit at least.  Re: the bolded I'm talking about next season. I'm okay with Mayo only getting his feet wet this season but I really think he should probably be our starting day 1B.  Fair point, but I still think Mayo is a special bat, and I'm also setting an extremely optimistic bar for Mountcastle there. If you change the question to, will Mayo be able to outperform Mountcastle in his first full season or at least match his performance, I am pretty confident the answer is yes, and that is meaning no disrespect to Mountcastle who I've really come to like and value. 
    • He’s definitely not a suspect
