The Guardians could use some production in right field, specifically against right-handed pitching. Will they find some this offseason in free agency or a trade?
In our previous article in this series, we covered the primary names who should be available this offseason to meet the biggest need on the Guardians: starting pitching. However, the Guardians also had the 20th worst wRC+ in MLB against RHP at 95 and they also had the 21st worst wRC+ from their right-fielders at 92. So, it’s clear they could use an upgrade in right-field, specifically against RHP.
I will not be doing another article looking at potential backup catchers or at the possibility of trading Josh Naylor and signing Carlos Santana (something being hyped up on Twitter at the moment).
