And if you've got great infield defense, invest in groundball pitchers.
You can find Gold Gloves easy and cheap. I would play great fielding SS and 2B as long as you have solid bats at the corners. That should help your pitching. Also, and this may be debatable, get a Catcher with a high C ability. I find that rating helps keep ERA's down.
