We had a magical year this year but to replicate that success I think we're going to have to be willing to put out bigger contracts when necessary. If we can't afford to keep Gordon then we sure as hell aren't going to be able to keep Moustakas or Hosmer.

Moose has to prove something still but is signable. Hosmer is gone even if they did have the $$$
