I'm still kind of fascinated by the idea of taking a bad contract off the hands of a contender near the CBT threshold to free up space for them in exchange for a gift wrap of a prospect or two. I've become convinced by the Soto with Corbin rejection by most on the board that the real direction we should be going towards is taking on money rather than off loading. Slate's Hosmer theory.
The Strasburg disaster has probably screwed that.
If this front office had salary cap flexibility to take on sin money in return for prospects, they wouldn't have gone into the season with the pitching staff it did.
