That’s what carried this team’s fans through the 60′s, the last half of the 70′s and the first couple years of the 80′s, in fact all of the bad times. It made the bad times bearable and the good times better!

straight from the horses mouth, yet many posters still are screaming that he isn’t going to do “anything” to improve the team because he hasn’t already made all his off season moves.

By signing cheap pitching help now they do not have to rush the development of the pitching that is already in the minors (most notably Mejia).

As long as signing someone does not impede your ability to build the farm there is nothing wrong with it. Now if we were going after Type A players and losing draft picks that would be another story.

As you know I think Sandy is just trying to trwad water until he sees if he is a buyer or a seller at the deadline. If the season isn’t already lost by that time then he will probably make moves that will hurt the farm. If it is already lost then he will likely trade some big chips to get the farm we would like him to develop.

It many ways it is the doctor’s approach. Do no harm! At least until the patient is dying and then you make the risky drastic moves to try and breed life back into them when it appears they are goners anyway!

I cant believe he mades 12.5M a year in 09 and 10. Thats more than Ollie and believe it or not this guy is just as bad.
