"How in the world could these guys have made money to buy a team??" Expand Ignoring Moncada, Robert and Eloy, I feel like all of the "money will be spent" signings (and Leury extension) will definitely equal both Harper and Machado's original deals (so not counting Machado's extension) by the time this is all said and done. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T R U Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Hes not wrong, sometimes you can finish 2nd, 3rd, 4th and it doesn't mean it was a bad season. This of course, does not apply to his team that is supposed to be in its contention window. Finishing 2nd, 3rd, or 4th in this division is embarrassing for what this team was supposed to be. We already knew that's how he felt anyways. Again, its not about the money its about winning. Well if its about winning finishing 2nd, 3rd, or 4th will never be anything other than a bad season with those expectations. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
