Good morning everyone, are you ready for another round of mailbag questions? Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com.
Ruff Trade asks: Shouldn’t the front office be doing more to support the signing of one Gerrit Cole? Isn’t it a waste to throw 324 million dollars at an ace and then stop? Re-signing Tanaka and/or Paxton could still happen, of course, but shouldn’t there be a stronger desire to pry loose a difference maker like Castillo? They already blew it with Carrasco.
