Call it impatience but I'm becoming increasingly irritated with this offseason. I'm also irritated that the rest of baseball doesn't have the M's best interests at heart or else they would not let the the top 2 FA pitchers and the game's best hitter come to our division. C'mon other teams!
And a certain blog in love with $/WAR just continues to beat the "don't worry, this changes nothing for us so lets not overreact (me: how about you just react?) to it" drum.
These two new AL East teams in our division decided to trade in their Risk cards and deploy all 30 of their new armies in Scandinavia, Ukraine, North, South and Western Europe and we're left clinging to Great Britain with our 5 measly armies waiting to be bludgeoned out of existence. But let's stay the course. That's the noble thing to do. Because the "right way to win" certainly does NOT involve such ridiculous moves as raising payroll, or doing whatever it takes to buy Fielder's services. No, the right way is to plan for your 2014-2016 window. I mean 2017-2019, sorry, I got a little too ambitious there for a second.
Please don't let us become irrelevant this offseason, Jack. Please.
Rant over.
