2009 Outlook-
Blown finished 20th in the H2H standings. With Hanley and company leading the way, the future looks bright. There is a lot of upside. I'd think Blown would wanna part with players like Carpenter and Mora. He will need to find a 1B this off-season, since DeRosa will no longer be eligible at the postion.
