Why does Barajas ever see the field? Then again I guess I can ask the same question regarding Barmes. The trade of Lincoln, their top pitcher out of the bullpen has really taken a toll...check out some of the late game performances.

Yeah and Presley and Tabata are far below replacement value as well. Thing is those are 2 positions (C and SS) that it is hard to find cheap, competent help

The key word for most all positions as far as Nutting and Huntington are concerned.
