SD Buhr / Jim Crikket Blueprint

[Steven Buhr]

You can read the 2,000+ words I wrote about how I'm feeling about what Terry Ryan should (and shouldn't) do next, after the Park and Murphy additions (and Herrmann & Hicks subtractions) by clicking here.

 

But just to go on record with my Opening Day roster, it would look like this:

 

 

C: Murphy

1B: Mauer

2B: Dozier

SS: Escobar

3B: Plouffe

LF: Rosario

CF: Buxton

RF: Sano

DH: Park

 

Bench:

- D Santana

- Suzuki

- Arcia

- Nunez

 

Rotation:

- E Santana

- Duffey

- Gibson 

- Hughes

- Doug Fister (via FA)

 

Bullpen:

- Perkins

- Jepsen

- May

- Meyer

- Berrios

- Milone

- Darnell (or Nolasco, if you just can't let him and his contract go or if you feel it's necessary to keep Berrios or Meyer in Rochester to keep them stretched out for a possible rotation replacement)

I like your angle of picking up Fister on a 1 year prove it to me kind of deal. I think he could bounce back from a rough 2015 campaign and be a dark horse to be a top of the rotation kind of pitcher again.
