That just leaves Musgrove and Darvish. If you don't attempt to fill out the rotation and you deal Soto...you basically have to dump Bogaerts and/or Machado as well. Hard to imagine Preller doing that...he's too stubborn. Edited November 30, 20232 yr by caulfield12

Pirate likely going to be in a much more competitive year. Cubs likely to have big upgrades. Though, where they may succeed is only the cards may have a plus offense.

Yet the Brewers are considering a total rebuild with Woodruff and Burnes on the way out and Yelich having what is likely to be his last solid season after struggling in 2021-22 compared to recent heights...he was very good but not great in 2023. The massive power numbers are likely gone for good, though. Not to mention the loss of Counsell and some of his key staff...as well as Stearns to NYM. Edited November 30, 20232 yr by caulfield12
