2. Kennedy and company  aren't the only dummies out there.  The Mets, for example, spent $318M (to our $190M) to get 8 more wins--89 vs our 81.  And the Astros spent $255M to get 7 more wins.  The Braves, who outsmarted us on the Sale deal, spent $236M to get 8 more wins.  

 

 

Last I checked, the Mets, Astros and Braves all made the playoffs, no?

I'm sure Red Sox fans are drinking their coffee this morning, reading this thread, and thinking, "Whatever happens, I hope ownership doesn't spend hundreds of millions of their own dollars to upgrade our favorite team to make the postseason."

"The Sox need to be frugal, and only spend just enough each year to stay in pretension. We're an offseason away from being sustained pretenders!"
