2013 "Can we Score 1 run for the SP" Philadelphia Phillies

[cjkalt]

Rotation is very good but the offense is weak again, got pitching depth so if anyone wants to trade hitting for pitching let me know.

Lineup vs RHP
1. C.J. Henry RF 7-10-6-6, 2.5 stars
2. Michael Bourn CF 7-6-8-5 with 10-10-9 stealing/baserunning
3. Travis Mattair 3B 8-7-5-4
4. Miguel Tejada SS 7-9-5-6 only FA hitter i didn't get outbid on (although i offered tulo 10 and he took 9)
5. Michael Taylor 1B 8-9-5-4
6. Jason Jaramillo C 8-6-6-6
7. Gary Richardson LF 9-8-8-7, if he lives up to those #'s he'll move up fast
8. Adrian Cardenas 2B 8-6-4-6

Starting Pitching
1. Ben Sheets 10-8-7 7 end
2. Scott Kazmir 10-5-8 8 end, just got 2 talent control he'll hopefully develop
3. Nicholas Barnese 10-7-8 9 end, and he's only 24
4. Troy Patton 8-7-7 8 end; tough debate between him and fellow lefty Kasey Kiker for this spot but I'm going to let Kiker work on his lefty performance in AAA for now
5. Chris Young 10-7-8 9 end, had rough year last year hopefully he'll rebound

Mop-Up
1. Harold Bourquin 5-7-9 5 end
2. Mike Pelfrey 10-6-7 9 end... just never came through as a starter...maybe he'll have a TSSL Rigo Rodriguez like bullpen transition

Middle Relief
1. Fabio Castro 7-6-9 5 end, good year last year looking for a repeat
2. Jason Stoffel 9-10-7 9 end, another converted starter, could be real good in the pen
3. Jason Anderson 8-6-7 6 end, quietly put up a good year, don't know if I'll get a repeat

Set-Up
1. Casey Weathers 10-8-9 4 end... i like my chances if I have a lead heading into the 8th

Closer
1. Steven Benford 7-8-9 2 end, was last year a fluke? maybe but he's solid nonetheless


I got some good arms in AAA, and I need hitting so if your out of contention or rebuilding and want to deal hitting let me know

Comments or Suggestions are always welcome!

You seem to have some good contact... and good contact will usually score runs... I think you'll be better on offense than what you expect... not great... but probably middle of the road... you could really use a power hitter in there somewhere though (besides the leadoff spot)

Dig the rotation, and very intriguied with the choice of Henry over Bourn... he has 10 eye (Henry that is) right?


-edit nevermind, 7 eye talent

Starting rotation looks familiar...
