Team Outlook- Another team in the midst of a rebuilding effort, was a team that seemed to have digressed over the offseason, making no big moves at all, the only real move being creating what is a mediocre at best double play combo in Clint Barmes and Bill Hall. The lineup overall looks very weak and is going to have a hard time scoring runs, while the pitching staff doesn't look great either. Overall it is a mediocre team, and will probably win somewhere around 75 games in 2011.
