$15,000,000 to Soria and Hochevar seems absurd to me when they aren't even our 8th or 9th inning guys and we have serious question marks at SP, 2B, and RF.
But we always have question marks at SP, 2B, and RF. The heavy investment in relief pitching has been aces the past two years. Not to mention, last year's crop of questionable/risky signings played an integral part of winning the WS. Does it bite us this year? Maybe. But until otherwise broken, might as well stay the course.
