To each his own. Many here thought Santana was crap. I don't think it's a coincidence that Colon's last 2 teams were the A's and Mets, 2 teams that play in pitchers' parks.

 

I would definitely have preferred them signing FA than trading away prospects for expensive contracts. I just don't think it's as simple as some of you make it out to be.

 

Even Halladay didn't want to stay after the 2009 season.

 

Personally, I would've been fine with waiting for the farm to bear fruits as I just don't think the team was in a position to go for it after the 2012 season so I'm more concerned with long term organizational planning than anything else.

 

 

This team's first choice for team Prez this past offseason was Kenny Williams...hey, at least he's won a WS.

 

Well he almost traded for Peavy the same way he could have traded for Ervin, so he was at least thinking about doing something like that. Cant change the past but still don't blame Rogers for that off-season. Like I said, JP was given money when he wasn't ready to spend it and he at least overpaid for free agents. That's more sensible.

 

As far as Kenny Williams, if he is prez, he likely won't be GM. Depends on who he hires. My money is still on Doug Melvin. Because Canada.
