So, rather than going out and finding players that are measurably better in terms of their performance on the field, you're saying it's better to go get grizzled veterans with the right ethic that can show the kids how to play the game the right way? I don't really think that's what you mean.
I'm not saying that the intangibles don't matter. I just have a really tough time believing that this was some sort of strategic, deliberate move, and I certainly don't see where the payoff has been this season, which has been a disaster. The fundamental problem with this organization remains a lack of urgency and seriousness with regard to the concept of winning. It's one thing if you put together a roster at the beginning of the year and everything goes wrong. It's quite another if mediocrity is built into the plan year after year after year after year...
It's mid-June and once again the games don't matter.
