this should help a quick turnaround happen


I mean team is going to be terrible so why should they spend $ this offseason?

They had a 150M+ payroll to start this season so its not surprising that they will go with low payroll as they suck and try to rebuild

No team spends big $ during rebuilding

They will likely look in bargain/clearance market in FA

More vets like Pham/DeJong who they would then likely flip in season for some longshot prospect and hope they can find a reclamation project like Fedde who they can then flip as well

Though as seen with horrid returns on Cease/Fedde/etc trades, Getz is terrible GM

I'm just not a fan of teams in large markets being cheap

The worst team of the modern era stuff is suddenly in doubt. 2 straight wins and they are up 3-0 tonight as they go win for #36 with still 5 more games against the hapless Angels. In my view, going 40-122 gets them off the hook since they would tie the 1962 Mets in wins.
