I don't think outfield is where they needed to improve. The rest of their division is pitching heavy; the Mets and their rotation, the three headed monster of Scherzer / Strasburg / Corbin in Washington, the Braves and their stocked starting pitching prospects; I don't see a right fielder being the problem in Philadelphia.
Yeah what the hell has happened to Arietta, he was unhittable for a while there.
