Perfect Team Help/Advice

Hey, I'm currently a bit stuck in between Silver and Gold leagues, and I can't seem to get over the hump. I'm also unsure of whether I should upgrade my lineup or my pitching staff. My team is as follows:

Lineup:
C - Yogi Berra (100)
1B - Jeff Bagwell (97)
2B - Robinson Cano (97)
3B - Evan Longoria (91)
SS - Troy Tulowitzki (91)
LF - Carl Yastrzemski (99)
CF - Duke Snider (96)
RF - Ty Cobb (99)
DH - Billy Williams (95)
Reserves:
Tim McCarver (93 - C/1B)
Chuck Klein (93 - DH/RF)
Ichiro Suzuki (92 - OF)

Starting Pitchers:
Max Scherzer (100)
Greg Maddux (99)
Steve Carlton (96)
Randy Johnson (95)
Ted Lyons (94)
Bert Blyleven (94)

Bullpen:
Aroldis Chapman (97 - CL)
Joe Nathan (93 - SU)
Josh Hader (93 - SU
Nick Burdi (90 - MR)
Eddie Plank (91 - MR)
Mike Mussina (93 - MR)
Adam Wainwright (91 - LR)
Camilo Pascual (92 - LR)

In my reserves I have the following:

LF Ralph Kiner (96) - Just seemed to underperform compared to Billy Williams and Chuck Klein
LF Giancarlo Stanton (90
RF Dave Winfield (91)
C Mike Piazza (96) - Not very good defensively for a backup catcher
C Jason Kendall (90)
3B Mel Ott (93)
3B Eddie Matthews (91)
P German Marquez (93)
P Yu Darvish (92)
P Mike Soraka (90)

Right now I have about 60,000 PP. I would like to upgrade at SS/3B, maybe move Cano over to one of those two positions since there seems to be more good 2B players than SS/3B. I may want to upgrade my pitching first, because it seems my team is consistently stronger offensively than defensively right now. When it comes to the bullpen, I hope it's not too obvious but I'm utterly lost, so any advice here would be great.

TL;DR
Judging from the above roster, should I:

1. make any moves regarding my reserve?

2. Upgrade my SS/3B, or my pitching first? And what cards should I target for these upgrades?

3. reorganize my bullpen?

Any other tips or advice would be greatly welcome. Thanks in advance.
