AA doesn't get a failing grade. He grabbed Gose. Gose could turn out to be a star one day at two key positions for this club. CF and leadoff.
I think he doesn't get a stellar grade either. I would have thought that Frasor was dispensable. If they do offer him Arb, then I wouldn't be upset if he returned. Buck on the other hand, i'm not averse to offering arb and having him sign else-where. As unnerving as Gregg is, I feel you should hold on to him considering his contract for his production.
This team is unlike most rebuilding squads in that it has a considerable budget. I think that not selling low and helping your competitors out is a good thing. The Sox and the Yanks are already successful enough.
Overall, AA shows his shrewdness and stubbornness. 2 qualities of rare commodity among young gms. Epstien, Cashman, Anthopolous...The three unconventional wise men.
