Yes, of course. Because the bar couldn't be any lower. Of course we'll feel better once we have some of sense of what pieces we've plugged in to fill the many holes we still have. There will be draft prospects CP is all aflutter over and I have no doubt Veach will make one more decent outlay we'll all be excited about and some cost conscious signings that we'll all deem wise.
But none of that changes the fact that the gap wasn't as wide as many here like to think (we were VERY close to going 3-3 in the division) and it's clearly narrowed meaningfully almost irrespective of what we do from here. That's the unfortunate part about all of this.
I'm so much more unhappy because of what our competitors have done than what Veach hasn't done.
But patient? I'm not running around and saying we're doomed. But I also couldn't have scripted the offseason to be in worse shape at this point.
