Jesus. This franchise is just so depressing 

Yes, very difficult to not have this opinion. 

The Angels have an owner who “loves” Anthony Rendon, so he will spend whatever necessary to attain that player. Our guy simply loves money, so he will do whatever necessary to save it all.

$73 million is a far cry from $250 million.  Time to start playing with the big boys if you want to win like the big boys.

There had been exactly 2 contracts over $250M in the history of baseball 10 months ago. Still as of right now, only 10 contracts over $210M in the history of the game. 

Sometimes context is important.

If the goal was to maximize profit, they did a terrible job allocating money last year.

Other than McCann and Nova's second half, it was one of the most ineffective "spending sprees" in MLB history.

The chances of getting Keuchel/Bumgarner/Ryu shrinking by the minute.

They aren’t even going to spend that $250 million total of Machado money from last year on multiple players for another year or more, according to Hahn.

Did you guys seriously think the Sox were going to sign Rendon? I never thought that was even a remote possibility.

It was a very good use of resources with Wheeler not an option. The fact the Sox don’t think so is the problem

Slightly below?  It’s embarrassing how low it looks to be.

I don’t disagree, but they put all their eggs into the Wheeler basket and had zero backup plan.  Now with our affordable 1 win RF and most SP options off the board, it’s going to be hard to sport an even respectable payroll.
