Just listened to MLB Radio interview with Jim Maloney. He picks the

defense, middle relief and some questions at the end of the starting
rotation. OK. We'll see.

I agree with your assessment. It wasn't long ago that this team was built on speed, defense, and pitching. The pitching could potentially be very good, but...
