I’m hopeful that Carpenter playing in the field a lot less will open up the bat. But at his age, that’s no guarantee. Goldy should hit better as well. I did the math last fall that the offense was something like 60 runs worse just from the loss of bat production by Carp and Goldy in 2019 vs 2018. While expecting them to be at the MVP level of 2018 may be too much, it’s not ridiculous to believe they could be 20-30% better than league average with the bat, each.
