I don't think anyone expects spending all the way up to the cap in a transition year, but it seems like another 15 mi on a few short-term contracts might've filled a position or two with a bit more leadership, play-making ability, positional stability...any and all of that and still left the team with 30 mil. If a reasonable expectation is currently 7-9 wins, then the spending mentioned above would seem to move the needle into being more seriously in playoff contention--and isn't playoff experience a great thing for a young team? Has Ballard mentioned any goals for this team beyond growing, gelling, or nebulous "be patient" terms?
