Barring folty improving to a top tier guy this year, we don't have anyone that's close to being a game 1 lockdown starter.
Given that there weren't any lockdown starters available this offseason, who exactly were you expecting him to get?
I can understand being pissed at AA for not signing someone like Cutch to fix our corner OF spot, and him not grabbing at least one more decent bullpen arm, but being mad about him not somehow grabbing a nonexistent front end starter is a weird complaint.

Certainly not in free agency. Who knows whether there were legitimate deals to be had via trade.
I agree that people screeching about getting Kuechel are just desperate

We lack an ace. The bullpen has to get stronger. Honeslty, our starting rotation is hit or miss. The bullpen needs to be addressed to buffer those 2 inning shite shows Folty and Newk give up from time to time.
Bottom line is I don't like going into the next season with nearly the exact same lineup, while Philly added Harper and Realmulto.
Keep in mind AA didn't construct the rebuild, he's merely getting to play with the toys he's been handed, he's on watch big time.

I didn't say I expected them to sign anyone. My point was that a weakness from last year was not addressed and it's gonna be a weakness again this year.
Not having a reliable #1 makes it difficult to win in October. Obviously those guys are rare and hard to acquire, but we have assets. All that being said, AA has time to make a trade and address it. Like I said I'm not on the freak out bandwagon, but I'm a little anxious.
