Moon, it's not that it's early or 137 to go, all of which is true. It's that there is a team that is undermanned in a tough division with a GM and/or ownership willing to relegate full seasons to rebuilding . It's that their actions have made the clubhouse atmosphere one of winning is not the real goal, managing the budget and ages of our players is the guide. I would not give Bogey an 8+ year deal, maybe not even Devers. But I would not have brought in Story ( regardless of production) to rip a hole in the team, full well knowing the fire sale is more likely than not by August 2 ( the 2022 trade deadline)
