And which ones would or wouldn't have gone all Winker-Wong

We also don't know their position on Seattle. Some guys only want to be in the biggest markets. Joc P was a tagged.

Makes me think of a recent interaction I had with Shannon Drayer on Twitter-

Shannon:
Dipoto on @SeattleSports sees "way more good than bad," with the Mariners currently but,

"We do have some individual positions that need to shore up and we are planning on addressing them as best we can but you are limited to what's available to you in the market."
Me:
That's because he was supposed to do his job and shore those positions up in the offseason when plenty of talent was available.

Instead they acted like scraping the bottom of the barrel (as usual) for guys like Pollock and La Stella was going to be enough.
Shannon:
Who.
Me:
How about instead of sitting on their thumbs to save money the last two years, they should have been in on Matt Olson, Freddie Freeman, Hunter Renfroe, Luis Arraez, Sean Murphy, Cody Bellinger, Brandon Nimmo, Xander Bogaerts, Kyle Schwarber, Juan Soto, JD Davis, Lourdes Gurriel Jr., Michael Conforto, Brian Anderson...

Even Andrew McCutchen, Carlos Santana, Andrew Benintendi, and Brandon Drury would have been upgrades over the bums they ended up signing.
Shannon:
Sure. Just go and look up who worked out, be it by trade or free agency. Conveniently leave out the other names so many wanted that haven't worked out. That's really constructive.
Me:
:shock: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

it is basically like saying you should put all of your money in a mattress instead of investing in the stock market because sometimes some stocks go down.
