This seems to be an even stronger commitment to winning than what we've seen since '05.

I could give a crap about how expensive he is. We just need to draft good baseball players. Asking for a big signing bonus doesn't make you a good baseball player. Now the way he's playing, this might not be the case... but I don't think any of these guys were the prospect Alex Gordon was. That was the make-or-break guy, and we got it done, barely.
