It may be a Spring phenomenon but I'm starting to feel more optimistic about this season.
Improved defense, especially on the left side of the infield-Check; Add a power bat-Check; Improved speed on the basepath-Check; a manager who can build clubhouse synergy-Also a check. I might get absolutely giddy (at least by recent standards) if the front office can add some opening day pitching.
Among other things, these moves give fans hope and a promise of in-season excitement. Not a bad off-season at all if we use a referenece point OTHER than LAD. Of course the Dodgers are in our division so ... final grade TBD but the arrow is trending up.
