Well that move would actually push the team ceiling higher because you can't usually fit so much war in one roster spot. Teams however can luckbox their way to 1.5 win players on league min.
For example 40 mill for ohtani then league min 5 other spots or 40 mill for turner vog kk green and yariel?
Easy choice right? I think that's why Atkins tried it in the first place. But somehow when he failed this board started praising his self admitted plan B. Which, I mean, he doesn't have many alternatives. The problem is really the foundation of the team. A homerun Turner signing is like 2 war vs 0. Does nothing.
One hit on a 1st round pick is like a 5 war season this year which trumps all the s*** we signed
