Well, in that scenario they are also getting Puig, and Realmuto, and would theoretically still have cash available for a free agent starter by means of the savings from dumping Bailey and Billy.
I guess we are saying, lets see this through before making judgements. It actually appears more is coming for once.
If the final adds are Realmuto, Wood, Puig, Roark, and Keichel, and you still feel that isnt sufficient, then yes, your expectations were too high.
