Below C-Level, excellent post. I am an advocate of the Rockies getting their team payroll level at least to the MLB median of $75 to $80 million instead of the paltry $55 million or so they will spend in 2007. However, TIMING is everything, and now is not necessarily the right time to be commiting cash to suboptimal talent. The inefficiency in the market could better be exploited via trades. I hope they are smart enough to pull off wise trades of Jennings, Helton, and even Fuentes.
They are sitting pretty with the "cards", and at some point they have to play them.
