Offseason Emphasis:
-Upgrade at catcher (short-term)... Top prospect Joey Bart is almost major league ready, after posting an .840 OPS in AA Mississippi. 24-year old Brett Cumberland was also solid in AAA last year, and he will likely be promoted. However, we will need someone to serve as a stop-gap for when Bart is ready.
-Acquire a right-handed outfielder: Last year, Inciarte and Eaton were pretty weak offensively. We will try to acquire an offensive-minded RH outfielder that can platoon.
-Acquire rotation and bullpen depth
