Realignment/expansion:
Just a thought. Why not put the mega spending teams into an East Coast division and West Coast division and let them spend crazy.

Not to excuse him, but he would have a hard time finding an every day nine guys among the 13 he has available.
Naylor, Santana, Rocchio, Arias, Ramirez, Kwan, Someone, Kayfus, Manzardo isn't going to scare too many pitchers.

rusty - agree on platoons they are overdone. There is no excuse to be benching Manzo against lefties at this point...ever.

Of Civ's group. Ramirez, Kwan, Manzardo and Kayfus are starters and keepers.

Rest of the season I play Arias and Rocchio everyday. Santana and Jones only need to play if someone gets injured or quits. I immediately call up Noel and let him play against all pitchers. There is enough room for Manzardo, Kayfus and Noel to play everyday. We will try to acquire a RH power bat in the off season so why not give our current best chance another shot.

Stephen Vogt’s message to Angel Martinez — hit the cutoff man: Guardians takeaways

A real CF would help; that's why I'd take a look at Petey Halpin who's no great batting option but can play CF
