"@AndyMacalpine @whitme58782 @alberkwitz53 @McnalleySean I hear ya. But you also can trade surplus high-end prospects for P if you arent spending big $. Angelos family is never again gonna be top [--] in payroll. Those days died with Al Belle. But smart and shrewd moves can reap benefits. But yes they need an ace now even if one develops"

"@paganrobva I hear ya but Texas payroll is really top heavy. Jankowski is making barely over a million. Garcia Heim Jung Dunning Sborz Carter almost all the step-up guys are making under $1 million in [----]. So the huge payroll helps but the depth is cheap. Thats good management"
