I would go for Betances or Daniel Hudson.

Betances would help.

I'd take my chances with Betance, said my friend Francis.

A 2020 goal - very, very few innings from a scrubby sub. Please.

Bashlor and Sewald lifetime combined? 1-20! That crap keeps you out of the playoffs.

Getting Betances would probably get us to that near-zero-usage-of-scrub goal.

And into the playoffs.

They still need to improve. But, looking at the 40 man roster right now, along with guaranteed contracts and/or players that still have options, things are getting tight. It looks more like Brodie needs to make a trade. That scares me.
