| STRENGTHS / WEAKNESSES |
Strengths: Florida has a phenominal outfield. Florida has one strong starter. Florida has two strong relievers. Weaknesses: Management would like to find someone to play catcher, first baseman, second baseman and third baseman for them. They need one quality starter in the top of the rotation. Florida has a really young bullpen, which can explain its erratic performance. Look for them to add one talented veteran. |
