yeah, they have filled up $19M in cap space with FAs. Please go listen to the Burke interview on the Fan yesterday morning. This team is NOT going to be active with FAs. If anything, they will trade assets for assets, but they are not going to take on $19M in FAs when they can produce them in the systeym That is the key to the way healthy organizations are built....Let players go in thier late 20's, fill in the gap with cheap ELCs.
Even if you add in an extension for Russell, we still have $14M in room in '17-'18 to work with. That is PLENTY of room, if it is managed correctly, which I have faith in the front office to do so.
