I mean, really? Rieder? Alan Quine? They're depth signings, they're nothing. Occasionally you hit a homerun with one, or one is incredibly disappointing, but for the most, part, they're just kind of there.
As Jiri pointed out, usually they aren't signed to be difference-makers, just to basically exist.

Good/bad is certainly subjective. I'm encouraging others to go through the exercise to see how quickly they'll be confronted with "can I argue this was a good acquisition?"
But it doesn't really matter. Treliving's UFA signings are a long list of sad. A lot of filler, way too many big ticket disasters and a few modest successes in between. Tanev is the closest thing to a homerun Treliving has at this point.
