  1. The real question is do you want all $40 million plus eggs in one basket, or do you want 4 baskets of $10 million eggs.  Do you want to consolidate the risk, or dilute it by spreading it out.  If you want to dilute the risk we could get an outfielder, and three different pitchers.  If one or two of the four go down, you don't lose $40 + million eggs.  Or here is a novel idea, put $40 million + in the egg farm and when the chicks hatch watch it bloom and go crazy.  On the other hand do we trust the farmers?image.jpeg

    What exactly would you want him to say, it's a case of a manager being out of reasonable players to even fill a basic lineup card.  It's totally ridiculous!  The most effective tool for handling a situation like this year would have been to strengthen and provide even more depth throughout the farm system, but that can not happen overnight, it takes years and it's like dragging a tank behind a Jeep, very slow going with lots of ups and downs.
