Ramble on, ramble on. You didn't get a 1st baseman. You proposed to take the best DH in baseball and put him in the field. Where he will most definately suffer with his bad knee. You didn't "get" a center fielder. You proposed signing our own free agent for terms he has stated are below his requirements. You want Soriano, who are you going to give up, since he's not a free agent. Not to mention we don't need a second baseman. Fine, gaet "quality pitching ", once again how are you going to pay for it with all these other acquisitions. I quess your style , or lack thereof, is whenever questioned, just change the subject. There are such things as budgets and financial responsibilty, and yes indirectly it does come out of our own pockets. Its called higher ticket prices. Go back to your bottle. Come back back when you're some what lucid.
