I don't think it's that. I think it's finding good value. Those are all short deals with small individual risk. Spreading the money out improves your depth and leaves you less vulnerable to a single UCL.

You're also looking at, minimum, two rotation members and likely three (or around 450-550 IP). As well as two key bullpen arms, and someone who has a good chance to be in the rotation next year.
