Porcello and Peralta from a good short stop is what we need.

Rumor has it a trade could be in the works for a SS. Porcello is being talked about as being a key piece. We shall see.

Hopefully Johnny displays some of the range he featured in the playoffs in the regular season as well. Never knew he could move like that.

Both good moves; both expected moves.

Dotel still has the big platoon split, but he’s still effective enough that it doesn’t sink him. Against RHH in 2012, a 10.8 K/BB ratio and a 25% BABIP (although all three of his 2012 homers came from RHH). Against LHH in 2012, a 2.4 K/BB ratio and a 38% BABIP.
