He has a very good pitching staff coming back, but a lot of holes in the infield. Neuman/Kramer didn’t go well, if you use Bell and Frazier on the right side the defense will be below avg. need a SS. At 3b if Kang comes back then Moran can go. Still have RF, so NH will be busy

That’s why Alex made the distinction of NL pennant.

Otherwise – nice article.

I think you’re on to something with “improving” wherever it can fea$ibly be done. But Frazier at SS could be extremely painful to watch and surely would lessen his hitting, at least for a while.

There are very few “complete” teams and I don’t expect the Pirates to be a complete team anytime soon, but being one of the better NL teams is currently within reach with a few breaks.
