Sad but true. Im worried this team wont avg 3 runs per game.

As long as Castro and DeJesus (who I'm assuming will be our #2 hitter) can get on base, I think Soriano will have some opportunities to knock in some runs. Castro doesn't draw any walks, so if he can work on getting deeper into counts, I think we could score a few more runs than people realize. Even after a subpar season last year, DeJesus is still a career .354 OBP guy. Not terrific, but it can definitely help us.
