They spent more money than anyone on international prospects.
I didn't have any problem with Dan Evans. He put the team in a great position to succeed and they went out every year and picked up the pieces to compete come playoff time but the bullpen was such a disaster there was so many injuries come playoff time they were snakebitten. And let's not forget Jeckyle and Hyde Odalis Perez imploding us in the playoffs.

Fox bought the team to try to show up and slap around Turner when He owned the Braves.
The Fox people traded Piazza. Claire even admitted to as much at the time and will still admit it to this day.
The Fox people pretty much also told Mike Scioscia to go F himself and He went to the Angels.
I agree about Evans for the most part. He did very well considering the restraints He was given.
