re: Congrats to the front office for wasting this entire month

This. They thought it was okay to wait and see how the team looked when the injuries abated and, hopefully, sellers prices came down. They were wrong on both counts. And now it may be too late. You can't bank on huge winning streaks to rescue your season. You just can't manage that way. Negligent. They had to act sooner, even if it meant an overpay...
