I'll have high expectations for Funchess and Houston but if they don't work out I'll be critical of the signing, not the money. Funchess is unproven, Houston might be too old. They are our marquee signings. The money won't matter, but how they produce (or don't) matters a lot.

And to go one step further, regardless of whether or not Funchess and Houston produce, the vast majority of improvement was always going to come from the progression of young players already on the roster.
