Knights sign 4

Well with the season less then a week away the Knights officially signed 4 players.  We were thinking of using one of our 3 year spots but instead we feel we can trade for one if we need to during the season.  It's safer to sign 2 years and possibly extend them a 3rd.  Of all our contracts we feel Gomez was the only one worthy of a 3 year based on his high upside and 2nd half production.  Sometimes people figure it out.  Like Edwin.  I did the same with him in the past.  Winning the league isn't about drafting at face value it is about finding value where others don't see it.  That's the keys to success.  Anytime you draft somebody that outperforms their draft spot you get value.  Anytime you reach and they don't perform you lose value.  Simple game but hard to excel in.  If this was easy everybody would have a competitive team. Yet facts are some people draft cookie cutter style using default rankings or one source and some draft with head in clouds dreaming of rookie breakouts and so called sleepers.   My season will hang on the players below living up to their expectations.


All 2 year contracts

Mike Morse OF
Jimmy Rollins SS
Carlos Gomez OF
Brett Anderson SP

Edit:  I changed Morse from a 2 to a 3.  Feeling his only downside is injury not talent.
