You absolutely cannot go in with that attitude as an organization when you're very likely to have a winning record and haven't won a World Series in over 100 years. Teams with much less talent have won championships. We have some huge concerns, but so do most teams out there. And what if Pujols, Carpenter, or Wainwright got hurt? We'd have an excellent shot at winning the division, and once you get in, anything can happen.

I totally agree. It's just that Hendry loves to go after players coming off career years, so this Frasor character scares me. I'm all for adding veteran arms provided that we don't mortgage the future in doing so.
