I understand what you're saying; however, sometimes it's just not possible to fix these problems immediately. For example, you know we need another starting pitcher. We've been seriously courting Freddy Garcia from Seattle. Seattle knows their season is shot, and that Garcia's a great player they can deal and get some good talent for. If you were Seattle, would you take the first offer you received for Garcia (being that it's the White Sox), or would you wait a while and see what other teams offer? I don't know about you, but I'd wait to see what else is offered. KW could have gotten Garcia right away, but he would have had to gave up a tremendous amount to do so.
