Had we paid Whit and Zeitler the money needed to keep them, would we have been able to extend Geno and Carlos?
I kind of doubt it. Does anybody here have a more definitive answer?
If we couldn't have afforded to keep all 4, which 2 would you have preferred? I'd go with Carlos and Geno. Defense wins championships.
BTW, I hate how the rising salaries are destroying the game. If you build a good-great team, you'll never be able to afford to keep them together for very long.
if we had paid them the deals they received elsewhere.. Cuts or restructures would have had to be made... Just to get these deals done as is they had to make a few cuts without Z or Big Whit on the books.
