It may be an exercise in futility, we wouldn't really know unless it was tried. If there's anything the coaching staff can do to potentially get more out of the current roster it should be attempted IMO.
I also think given his history of bringing in "complementary" players capped off with the Erat debacle understandably leaves us with little faith that GMGM has the foresight to know who a good complementary player would be to put on the top line or the ability to acquire him without significantly impacting our current roster.
It seems like the organization is complacent and happy with the team's current makeup and level of play anyway so I'm not expecting anything to change. They're winning right now so I'm glad for that.
I'm just saying it's been tried plenty in the past. If they tried it for 5 games and nothing got better, then what, latch onto some other thing to second guess Oates over?
