This team is potentially better than 2009 because of the starting pitching rotation is so much deeper

The pitching is way better, but there’s some major questions in the batting order. Guys with averages and OBP’s that are way too low. The 2009 team had just one guy (Cano) with an OBP below .360 and one guy (Swisher) with an average below .273 for the year. Cano still hit .320+ and Swisher still also had a .370+ OBP on the season too.

Rizzo, Verdugo, and Lemahieu look very average to below average offensively. I feel like we need to upgrade two of these guys offensively to really solidify our lineup for the playoffs.

Friday's night game against the Dodgers is no longer Apple exclusive, the game will be on YES as well. No local coverage for the weekend games though, only Fox and ESPN.
