Which teams do you think are looking for pitching in the first week of May? You can talk trade all you want but there has to be a motivated buyer. 

Rangers?

Hard disagree. Get as much young talent into the org as possible. It's not money and this team isn't competing. If Arte can pay $$$ to get a recent first round pick as a PTBNL or something like that, why not? 

Why does it matter what the payroll is, as long as it's below the luxury tax? It's not like taking on more money will keep us from signing anyone who would lead us to the playoffs. 

One huge advantage that large market clubs have over small market ones is the ability to throw money around at young talent. The Yankees and Sox did this to build up their farm systems before the hard cap on draft slots went into place. Arte never did. The Dodgers take on bad deals to get in talent. Arte should, too.

We had the perfect opportunity to do that with the braves and Iglesias. Our owner is cheap.
