Honestly I don't think Dayton would have offered him a long-term contract either way, but there was no way he was going to do it at the time because we were waiting on Eric Hosmer to decide what he wanted to do.

Which was another dumb ****ing idea he had. Blow millions on Hosmer when the team was going to suck even if we had him
