That said if its my team, I'm always trying to compete. I'd trade excessive blue chippers for established young MLB talent with several years of control and lock 'em up cheap (and keep the guys I believe in). I'd be targetting the high upside, low investement types like Felipe Paulino (a steal by KC) or Seth Smith (a couple years ago), or any number of guys. I might give the Giants a call about Andres Torres if they snag a Beltran, etc. I'd go after value FAs.
If this were fantasy baseball that is..As a fan you have no control over the siutation, so you end up rooting for a scenario that you think is the most effective path to a WS win.
Howie will do as Howie does. Z is just going to have to work around it. Hes shown he can develop and organization that can build young talent. Hes shown hes a master of trade. I just hope that he can continue to do his thing and build a young core.
