If this isn't one of the least important concerns the organization has, I'm not sure what is.
Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...
Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?
If we could get a C or 3B for Kemp, I wouldn't be opposed to Neck-LF, Mallex/Ender fighting for RF/CF.
That is if we can get a hitting C or 3B.

For 2016 Nick becomes the 4th OF maybe he can come in for defense for Kemp once in a while, once this season ends id trade him for a soda machine for the new clubhouse.
Mallex's .297 average in the minors doesn't exactly make me think he's not a good hitter. He obviously doesn't something right

Everyone here seems to have a lot of confidence in the health of Kemp, Inciarte, and Mallex. You can assume our 4th outfielder will see atleast half a season worth of at bats if not more. We most likely wont have a great rotation or lineup so we need to make up for that with quality depth.

Why all the love for powerless outfielders?
Mallex and Incarte may hit 10-12 home runs between them. That's pretty horrible for two starting outfielders.

I am an OBP guy. I believe the less outs your making the more runs your going to score. Inciarte and Mallex on the bases are going to score more than a slow guy like Freeman. We might not score 10+ runs a game a lot but I think it would be a lot easier to manufacture runs when we need to. Single, stolen base, move the runner over, sac fly, and you got a run. Speed also puts pressure on the defense and affects how the pitcher pitches. We also wouldnt have to score as many runs with good defenders in the outfield.

Don't forget, we have to find ABs for Tebow.
