After recouping most of their ill-advised investments in Kotsay and Baez, Surprise was very eager to find another opportunity to spend money like a drunken sailor again. Along came Whitehorse with picks for sale and the next thing I knew, Danno was walking away with a big pile of cash and I felt dirty.
Surprise trades $250K in slightly used non-sequential bills to Whitehorse in exchange for SFE#3, WHI#3-5, and WHI waiver#2. Hey, isn't White Horse another name for heroin? Who's responsible for background checks on team owners?
Okay, so this latest round of drunken sailor spending has resulted in one of the most staggering draft pick hoards ever assembled. I don't actually have enough open roster spots to do it justice, so hopefully one of you will come to your senses and take advantage of these riches to move down a bit in the draft.
For the math-challenged members of the audience, that's 20 picks in rounds 1-5. Plus I have my own picks after that and some ill-gained waiver picks. 17 trades down and ? more to go. So, bring it on already!
