So out of one side of his mouth he says this:

https://sports.mynorthwest.com/1523322/ ... e-players/
“It’s exciting for us because this is the first time that we’ve really set our sights on finding those centerpiece-type players that can really drive a championship team, and hopefully we are able to bring one to Seattle, if not more.”
And out of the other side he says this:
“I don’t know how illustrious our November results will be, but it won’t be because we don’t go in as aggressive as we have every other year, and we are going to assume that it is just a normal offseason.”
So they are going to be just as aggressive as last off season??? Probably means nothing but why can't he just say "We are going to do absolutely everything possible to bring stars to Seattle that are capable of leading the team to a WS title???

And I see him going after position players and not so much pitching in Free Agency
There’s some depth in this particular class, especially on the position player side

Yep, I have seen literally nothing about a TOR from anyone other than here.

Maybe the fact that Seattle now has a non lunatic mayor will help expand our options as well.

AT, did you see I emailed Jenny inviting her to TG dinner? No worries if not but thought it wouldn't hurt to offer.

is he trying to say are going to be more aggressive? That is the only thing that makes sense

More aggressive. Isn’t that exactly what Stanton has been saying in public in regards to his pocketbook
