Wasn't making the point as a springboard to attack AA. Not even necessarily to praise Atkins, because at this point the lack of controllable impact talent is on the current FO. But it's actually remarkable that they've won 91, 92, 89 games the last three years given how much of the roster had had to come from vets on FA contracts. And they've done it without really mortgaging the future with bad contracts.
All that to say, if there's a team in league that needs to find away to land an elite offensive player, it's this one.
