So you think, by comparison, Davis, who's getting paid more money, for more years, and well into his next contact or retirement, is better than a productive hitter who happened to get hurt? Can you explain how Davis' deal is in any way better rather than the same or worse?
Can you also please explain how blowing the about of money they did to essentially field the same team when they could've spent that money on countless other players who were actual significant upgrades instead of just carbon copying last year's team but with a higher payroll?
How is blowing your load on the same that wasn't a playoff team last year better than taking that money and signing two corner outfielders, one of which is an all-star, two top of the rotation starters, a #3 starter, a dh and and 4th of/dh for similar total dollars?
Could you please explain in what world that would be considered a good idea in. Instead of trying to get better, the Orioles just stayed the course, while everyone else in the division made a conscious effort to add.
