November 2013: "We need to upgrade at shortstop this offseason, Ruben Tejada is a lazy, out-of-shape, malcontent"

*team fails to acquire a shortstop due to lack of money*

November 2014: "We are looking to acquire a second lefty reliever to go along with Josh Edgin"

*team fails to acquire a lefty reliever due to lack of money, Josh Edgin is now likely to get Tommy John surgery and the minor league lefties brought in have a combined ERA of 15.00+*

Spring Training 2015: "We are happy with what we have in camp in the left-handed relief department"
