Phoeniz, AZ--
Wow, this team is just operating on another level, let me tell you.
What other explaination could there be to the Talons' genius move of signing two left fielders (for a combined 127M!!) when only one was required? Sure, one could argue that Jorge Gutierrez and Andrew Torres were worth 5.9 WAR between them last year. Yeah, but there's only one open position. Like, didn't they know that Donald Miller was recently given his own $60M contract extension to play the other corner OF spot? And that NONE of the three guys can play Center Field, which is where the help was really needed?
Now the club has three corner outfielders for two lineup spots. What a hell of a way to spend 180M dollars guys. Bravo.
I mean, are they REALLY going to try for that 4th WC slot for the SIXTH season in a row? Just give it up guys. Seriously. There moves are so boneheaded that we can't even construct a proper second paragraph per the Team News guidelines.
Sheesh.

I think playing with 10 players should give you the boost you need for the playoffs.
