We couldn’t we have resigned Mauro seeing that he only signed for 1.4 M?

Assuming he didn't choose California for the tax advantages, I'd have to think we didn't believe he was worth more than 1.39M?

Players have a choice where they play? Don’t tell BBI...

This is probably my biggest gripe about DG. In ripping apart the roster last season our General Manager made several unnecessary cuts of young ball players RIGHT BEFORE the start of the season. I said then, and I repeat now, that that certainly did not enhance the atmosphere of the locker room. I thought it was capricious on the part of Gettleman.

Now fast forward to losing Mauro (not to mention B.W. Webb and Mario Edwards). I mean: Has Gettleman ever heard of continuity and letting team mates develop and grow with one another over a few fucking years? This is Gettleman's biggest weakness IMO. He has been too rash and hasty with several of his roster moves.

And I don't want to hear any shit about cleaning out dead wood; changing the atmosphere, and blah, blah, blah. That's not what I'm talking about!
Gettleman

won't make cuts without talking to staff. He might override them but they will be given prior notice. If you're going to get cut - early cuts benefit the players, gives thema chance to land somewhere else.
