With the Diamondbacks set to target a left-handed hitter this offseason, we dive in to five potential lefty 1B/DH targets in free agency, starting with Japanese slugger Teruaki Sato. Could Sato be even better than Munetaka Murakami's debut season with the Chicago White Sox? How much would he cost, and where would he play?
We also talk about NLCS MVP Jake Bauers. Was his breakout season a one-off, or is he actually one of the premier hitters in the sport? We also talk about a few lower cost options, plus a potential reunion with former D-backs DH Joc Pederson.
Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on Snakes Territory, the official Arizona Diamondbacks show in the Foul Territory network.
