1) Thanks for all the work you did when you were involved.
Here are the first questions.
Is the SS a prospect or a developed player?
I have signed players expecting to be in bad shape until the 2nd, 3rd or 4th of the contract.
Is there compensation involved in the signing?
Sounds like he will be 2/3rds of your cap, how is your fan interest and loyalty? How was attendance last season and did you make money?
My initial response would be based on these answers. If there is no compensation involved then I would seriously think about it, especially if I have a decent fan loyalty and decent attendance.
The primary mistake I make when taking over a bad team with a good minor league system is having the patience to develop the existing talent.
Good luck and thanks again,
Tom
