[QUOTE="leatherneckjacket, post: 925915, member: 3849"] Yes, it stops being moneyball when they not only trade / sign the best available players (Betts, Freeman), but also retain their best players when they become free agents (Kershaw). Just because they are not only extremely good at both evaluating and developing talent but also smart when to resign vs. let go of free agents, does not mean they are moneyball. Being better than the Yankees at managing your roster at the top of payroll is not Moneyball. It is just being better than the Yankees, which is pretty easy (I hate to say as a Yankee fan). At the end of the day, they never have to make the tough choices like Tampa Bay to sell high value assets at their peak in order to bring in a new crop of prospects. [/QUOTE]
