They should have done this for years instead of sending talent to other teams. Can’t wait to get the new guy in here to see if they chance build a decent roster.

Doesn’t work. Developing players is a slow and hit and miss. Acquiring a proven vet is the way.

The biggest surprise to me is that this surprises you. Let me get out ahead a little bit and try to spare you the trauma and indignation later- they won't sign any meaningful free agents this offseason either. This will give you some time to get yourself together.

You're normally very 'bazar '...but you're right on this one...an 'old of touch' owner and a Mo-ran.

This coincides with the change to the tv deal. It was inevitable.

If other people buy something and you won’t, that’s kind of the definition of cheap.

Yes
When you don't supplement w/a payroll that allows the new POBO to add pieces that don't exist inside the system (re: power hitters, OF'ers and TOR+TR starters).

Telling someone else how to spend their money, is pretty (bleep) funny.
