Given the financial constraints of our market size, not splashing cash on aged SPs (look at Yu Darvish last year, we'd be really hamstrung and likely would not have been able to bring in Grandal/Moose this year) seems to be the wise move. Now, we're going to need a bounce-back in Nelson and/or a progression from Burnes/Woodruff/Peralta to make this grade an A of an offseason, which would mean it all worked and we took the NL Central crown again this year. A repeat in the hardest division, and getting harder annually, we're at least in a position to do that, all we can ask for as fans...Good Times in Brew City! BEER CHEERS!
