The thing is that if Kloff is the best offer there are teams which will top it. We are not in a position to get into bidding wars. I don't disagree that prospects are overvalued...but there are other teams to consider here (Including Cinci who would likely not make the deal) If you believe that Bauer makes us a contender, what does he make the Yankees?
The Royals did it so why not us is hopefully not the way this F.O. works
