Yes, but as a fan I hold hope eternal. :-) Our young arms are very promising
and we have even more in the minors, so the future is bright. And I expect our
offense to be as good or even better than last year, so I the pitching would
necessarily have to improve _that_ much.

I think he'll make a good DH. Perfect candidate (if he stays healthy, the big
"if"). If we can improve over Mo defensively at first (which shouldn't be TOO
hard), then I think he'll make up the offensive difference.

I'm looking forward to the start of the season VERY much. The off-season is
just too damn long... :-)
