Would love to see them do something in LF but if they have to go into the year with Beltran, Tatis, and Church in the OF then so be it. The payroll is around $111 million right now so they have another $30 million or so to spend. No real reason they can't get a good pitcher, a fill in veteran pitcher, and another bat in the outfield (even if it is just a righthanded hitter off the bench).

Ibanez would be a good fit in left. There isnt much out there on the FA market for starters. maybe Jon Garland? What if they could get Pettite on a one year deal? He seems to be the odd man out with the Yankees and still hasnt said he wants to retire.
