No money to do it with besides the draft? Nonsense. Moore consistently throws money away in poor decisions at the ML level, and we don't have to look very hard over the last several years to identity severe misuse of funds.

Anyway, his success at finding amateur talent has been his saving grace in KC, and he looks far less foolish than he did in the summer of '09, when he could have justifiably been run out of town had the owner paid any attention to the team or given the smallest ****.
Yeah between "pitching is the currency of baseball," "little/no payroll flexibility" and "it takes 10 years to rebuild a ML franchise" I'm getting really tired of Moore.

Pitching, as we all have established, sucks. If there's no payroll flexibility, why are you signing ****heads like Yuni & Quintero while keeping worthless guys like Hochevar around? And the Rays, Marlins, Nationals and D-Backs have all shit all over your "10 years" comment at some point in the last 10 years.

Hell of it is, though, is that there's been 1 constant throughout all the sucking, and it doesn't look like Glasshole is going anywhere (at least that I've seen). Really really hope I'm wrong, though, cause an ownership change would definitely make me feel better about the entire state of the franchise right now...
