Will they be as brilliant as his signings of Carl Crawford and John Lackey?

Cuz if they really do go out and spend money all we will see is more Soriano, Werth, or Carl Crawford contracts. And thats just a waste of money.

Wont cause a meaningful increase in revenue. Its all about rate of return on investments. Fans need to get real and understand that owners are not obligated to make bad investments decisions. They will spend money when they see that it is a good business move. You want a winner? Stop supporting losers!

The Cubs stink and need to get better. The new CBA makes it really hard to get better via the draft and international signings.

And fans still wonder WHY the MLBPA sold out would be draftees…
