He's getting the staff he wants. What about players?

$5 million for Brown doesn't seem like top tier money, but spotrac.com has him listed as a 4-3 MLB and his salary was 7th on that list.  Don't know how many teams run a 4-3, but even among all ILB (4-3 and 3-4) his salary was 17th.  That should be decent starter money.  I think Brown's injury slowed him down, but his less than stellar play make people forget that he was not our usual over-the-hill has-been free agent LB.


One top tier free agent and another good starter from free agency would be pretty good this year.

It really did all start last year.  Nice to be taking the next step.
