We should be in rebuilding mode

[JaysAllMighty]

I don't really know why we signed Martin. We're not close enough to chase a championship. Our starting pitching is not very good, and we have a few other weak spots - most noticeably DH.

With time running out on EE and Bautista, this would have been an ideal time to have unloaded those guys and picked up some young talent.

 

The Cubs, Dodgers and Red Sox are running over with talent, with guys way too talented for AAA having nowhere to go. These teams are desperate for someone to reach out with a solution.

 

The Dodgers have a massive logjam at both infield and outfield.

The Cubs have more young stars than they can count, as every Cuban seems to be working for them.

The Red Sox can't find anywhere for Mookie Betts to play. They might shuffle him to left field, even though he's a plus defender at both CF and 2B. A huge waste.

 

We should be capitalizing on this and grabbing talent, and end our cycle of finishing middle of the pack for the 22nd year in a row.

 

You're an idiot.

You're an idiot.

 

I'm sorry. What I meant to say was:

 

OMG, we have Russil Martins. That's so awsome. We are going to be the champions of all the baseball. That was the one piece we were missing. Now we're unstoppable. Go Blue Jays!!!!!!!!!!

Jays are probably 88 win-ish true talent team with Martin (Not great for a $150M payroll but whatever). Won't take that much positive luck to finish with 90+ wins. Tearing it down now wouldn't make much sense.
