Idek what the solution is and if it ain’t a cup contender I don’t want it.

I’m just ready and waiting for a rebuild at this point.

Monahan is toast. I'm pretty sure he is closer to retirment than he is signing a multi year deal.

Bunting at 5 million is an overpay

Paying a third for Ruuta and you paying the same for Geekie,which we could also do, seems a bad move for us. Especially with his surgery as stated
