Yep, I think it's
Yep, totally agree. I sort of feel like they're kind of stuck in neutral.
Trust that the FO has a plan and are smarter than I, but I'd probably look to extend Devers and younger stars (Casas, Mayer, etc.) and go cheap everywhere else, looking to sneak into the playoffs and resetting the tax. Don't know if that's possible.
Right. Though I think that now we are two years over the tax threshold that limits rebuilding efforts if the goal is to spend for a bit before having to reset again.
But again, I don’t know what the plan is here. We hear they want Xander forever and he’s gone now (under insane circumstances that he never should have met). But I don’t get the sense Devers will be a lifer. So we can likely expect one more medium sized deal and then a bunch of stocking stuffers and hope they gel as a core.
