I believe DM said recently the goal in a small market is to bring up the following each year:
1. Position player
2. Starter
3. Reliever
He has done that most years. last year he didn't unless you include Orlando. He will have to do it this year tho. Guys like Eibner, Zimmer, Almonte almost have to come up because Madson + Young are surely gone and we are really maxing out payroll.
What happens to Vargas' contract? I read it's all covered by insurance if he doesn't pitch. That's a big game-changer (8m) in terms of payroll.
The team did go 26-16 or something like a 97-win pace without Gordon. Something to thjnk about if he really wants 90-100M.
