The San Francisco Giants could also use Lorenzo Cain

One team that might be worse than the Phillies on defense is the San Francisco Giants and they have a huge outfield.

They have -27 DRS as a team, which is the worst in baseball and a number of outfielders are negative. In fact, their outfielders have -16 DRS, which is also the worst in baseball. Cain would obviously help them out in that department but offensively, hitting at Oracle Park will not be an easy task.

Lorenzo Cain could help out the Colorado Rockies

One of the biggest stories for the Colorado Rockies on the season has been their drastic downturn in defense.

In 2021, their team was in the top 5 in nearly all defensive categories but in 2022, they are in the bottom five in nearly all of the same categories.

Garrett Hampson (who also plays the infield), Charlie Blackmon, Yonathan Daza, Randal Grichuk and Kris Bryant (who has been injured for most of the season) have combined to have -20 DRS thus far on the season.

Lorenzo Cain would help solve some of that issue and with playing at Coors Field, maybe he could find his swing. The problem would be that Colorado already has too many outfielders and they already have a good defensive outfield who hasn’t hit well (Sam Hilliard).
