Hey, why bother figuring out which players are good and how much to pay them? Just pay some guys until you have no more money and replace the rest! Optimal.
As if you have the slightest clue on how much money the Lerners and the Nats have and what their budget is. Nobody is suggesting that we give Cano all the money he wants, but you have to give your team the best chance to win for as many seasons as possible. I see this with signing Cano. If down the road we lose anybody that leaves for more money, he can be replaced.
