I suppose that is the take on the situation that I had to hear. I hope and think it's true. Geoff certainly seems to ascribe the notion that no money = no winning for a long time, and Cameron flat out doesn't think we have enough talent and depth to be able to say we're proud of our 2012 product, but you are certainly right that we don't know all aspects of the team's finances. Z is most definitely confident in the cheap pieces he's assembled. Gravy, it doesn't cost us money to play them now. But then I'll want to see the brass extend the ones we want to keep when the time comes. As someone said awhile back, it's unfortunate that we have to play this guessing game with our ownership: "are they really committed to winning?" Because if I was 100% sure of that, then the money, or lack thereof presented, wouldn't be an issue. It just happens that if you aren't 100% sure, seeing your owners put lots of dough on the table is one way of being validated.
So I will reserve a little skepticism, but assume that Jack is confident enough in his pieces to say "no, I don't need Edwin for 4 years because Erasmo is gonna impress you guys this spring." Either way, let's get this thing rolling.
