Any decent player would cost money. And the GM had to take up a collection from the players on the team to even have a chance to sign a free agent starter during the spring.

I don't understand why everybody is so shocked why AA hasn't made a major move. Ownership wouldn't give him any money during the winter when he could have bought some help. Why would they suddenly loosen the purse strings now?

It doesn't have to be a major acquisition but either way, I am not surprised. I already criticized Rogers in the off-season for reeling in the payroll.

If anything they wanted to cut payroll with that new character who came in as CFO?

Look for them to lower payroll next year and beyond.

It's the perfect storm for ownership not to spend money.

When the team was winning a lot there was no need to bring anybody in.

When the team started losing a lot there is no reason to expend prospects for a false hope.

Ugh. Pat Tabler. Urging Francisco to grip and rip it right after the pitcher walked a guy on four pitches...

Seriously? Balfour has been brutal all year. Make him throw you a strike.

Fracisco cant even hit fastballs anymore.

Had a good chuckle when Tabler said "all he needs to do is cut down his swing". Like he's even capable of doing that.
