Inbox: Will D-backs look to improve OF depth?
D-backs want outfield depth What can the D-backs do to improve their outfield?
-- Bob, Oro Valley, Ariz.
I still think the D-backs have one more move in them before the regular season begins, and it's to add an outfielder. After the starting three -- A.J. Pollock, David Peralta and Yasmany Tomas -- they really don't have much depth. Is it possible they enter the season with Socrates Brito as a backup and also use Chris Owings and Chris Herrmann out there? Sure, but I think their goal is to add an outfielder.
Speaking of Owings, judging by what manager Torey Lovullo said this winter, it looks like he plans on moving Owings around at a number of different positions, including the outfield.
