Not at all. But don't assume the moves we've made this off-season will put us over the top. For the most part we've replaced pieces with other similar, but hopefully better pieces. HOPE is not a good strategy.
They may already have one. He pitches in the 8th or 9th inning most nights. Until we're willing to seriously consider this option we're wasting our time even discussing this issue.
I for one, take a look at the "lineup that has the potential to withstand the blow of losing Arraez" and see a lineup that scored fewer than 700 runs last year and wonder where offense needed to win a World Series is gonna come from.
