I think we need more team speed
Speed was banned in the last CBA. No more greenies allowed.
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

I think we need more intangibles.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
You don't need much speed with how the game is played in the 2010's. Different story in the 70's and 80's. This Reds team is OK with the speed they have now.

Maybe we could have more bullpen games. Chapman starts ... for one inning of course, then Marshall, then ...

Couldn't have much less. Last in NL in steals. 4th in caught stealing. 12th in Extra bases taken percentage.
I feel the need. The need for speed.
I think we need more power.
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

I know we need to score more runs than the other team.

We need more passion, according to Doc.

Then again:
Maybe I’m completely wrong.
