All true, however, we are at the point that we know, WE ABSOLUTELY KNOW, that Yelich is going to hit the IL 1-3 times a year. We still don't seem to have a true offensive plan outside of watch the top free agents sign in the off season, then pick over the scraps and hope.
I get it, it's what we do, but if our offense rides on the back of a guy like Yelich, who simply can't be counted on for a complete season, then we have what we have now. I mean, he can go down for 3 weeks to a month at anytime, now, next week, or right before a playoff run.
Our offense and it's success was going to depend on our young guys, and so far, that hasn't worked.
Thank God for Contreras!
