I have no idea why they would invest in an outside SS at this point. They have Lee (placeholder, but some small hope), Culpepper, and Houston. They may be picking a SS in 8 months or so very early also. I mean, it would be malpractice to give up on all three of those guys at this point and block them with a veteran signed for more than 1 year. And if you are signing a guy for 1 year, I guess, why? To what end? They have no bull pen and no 1b and no second catcher. Like, you need to fill those spots 100%.
