. . . or wrong to point out the good young talent on the MLB roster. That's a good base and you could make his argument that a lot of it was purchased with farm commodity swaps and not get laughed out of the room. So if you think he has significantly upgraded the 25-man it had to come at some cost. So, OK.
That doesn't for a second excuse not going after Darvish. Look at Milwaukee, a team in similar situation - Cain, Ozuna and a big offer out to Darvish. Something is amiss and the insistence from everyone in the org that resources are not an issue sounds to me like they doth protest too much. And too eagerly.
I like the team and hope it's competitive. That's no excuse to fail to improve it.
