Specifically looking at guys like Susac, Kyle Crick (RHP), Mac Williamson (OF), Steven Okert (LHP), Ray Black (RHP), Tyler Horan (OF), Adalberto Mejia (LHP), and maybe even Jarrett Parker (OF) to take the next step and show what they can do in September. These are the things I'm looking forward to in 2015.

Wow, 74 wins? That seems like absolute worst case. Were too good for that. I think its more like 82 wins.

I hope you're right and I'm wrong, but I don't think our starting pitching will hold up for 162. Beyond MadBum, it's going to be a roller coaster, and we haven't even talked about the woeful lack of power.

I will stick with 77 or 78 wins. The Padres have to be a LOT better and if Colorado can stay healthy they will be as well. Not looking forward to seeing our SPs other than MB pitch in Colorado. That could get ugly.

I think that was the one trade Sabes has made in the past few years that I was on board with from the get-go, especially considering what Amaro gave up to get him in the first place.
