Prospect here, prospect there. He has yet to hit anything but air......
6-6 after 12 games, same as in my live playalong in OOTP24. Maybe they really are $400M worth of meh.

I didn't think they had added enough last year and was surprised when they won all the regular season games, and I thought the same thing this year. Narvaez made sense as a part timer with Alvarez, but if they really intended to keep him in AAA they probably should have upgraded more at C.
Depth as ever is a problem, and they probably have the third best choice playing at 3B. I like Vogelbach but he seems like the usual AL player that doesn't really belong on a roster. I like Locastro and prefer the 26th guy to be fast/good with the glove but they seem to be using McNeil as the 4th OF which doesn't seem sustainable for 6 months.
And if the 35+ pitchers (Max, Verlander, Robertson, Ottavino) don't stay healthy that will be that. Hope the hospital sponsorship pays off!
