The pen is set up nicely so I'm not sure what you mean there. All of the bullpen guys should be 95+ fastballs now. They set up well against the Phillies and Dodgers with Minter, Bummer, Kerr and hopefully Matzek. They have dominate righties in Raisel, Johnson, Lopez and Jimenez.

Offense should be set as well. You might see some regression with Olson and Ozuna as it's hard to see them hitting as many homers next season, but most of the rest of the lineup should be where they were and you could see a step up from Money Mike (I'm hoping he's good for the whole season may get a 25/25 season out of him or better) and Kelenic hopefully breaks out (he could also have a 25/25 season or 30/30 even).

Starting pitching could be a concern, but remember they used like 16 or 17 different starters last season so even if they have to do that again they've shown they can make it work in the regular season. Let's hope that's not the case though.
