QUOTE (scenario @ Sep 16, 2010 -> 09:51 AM)
Dear KW,
Next year, please try to put together a roster that looks like it could win 95 games...
Rather than your usual approach of putting together a roster designed to win 85 games, and hoping that
- you catch lightning in a bottle
- some burned out retread reverts back to their glory days
- the team plays above expectations,
- and/or that other teams (particularly the Twins) under-perform
With the amount of payroll you have to work with, this doesn't seem like an unfair request, does it?
Regards,
S
You hit the nail right on the head. I guess we can't be that dissapointed because I figured the Sox for 86 wins this year.
