Pull me out of the wake

I could use a pep talk.

STH and I’m honestly feeling ambivalent about the season right now. We return proven talent to a hardware-winning squad so I should be optimistic, you’d think.

But then selling off Obed and RBW (for less than their value but that’s a different story) with no talent in return and a FO that seems disinterested in midseason window acquisitions leaves me worrying we’re headed for a mediocre season. No Kent, no Pedro for awhile, limited Arriola…just feels like we’re basically a less talented version of last year. And no, Dotson IMO does not make up for the imbalance.

I don’t understand our roster construction strategy unless it’s to stockpile cash for a move to Renton (in which case my STH days are over).

Make me believe I’m wrong. I need some tough love.
