Offseason Hot Stove Report #3

According to several sources with knowledge of the situation. The St. Louis Red Ravens are expected to be very active in this years offseason.

They could possess as much as 35 million in payroll to spend. They own the #13 pick in the draft and are expected to receive up to 4 compensatory selections in the upcoming amateur draft.

The sources noted that the team intends to pursue every avenue for improving the team after a disappointing season 4 finish. We're told that offense will be the main focus with the SS position as well as catch being the primary targets.

One source was quoted as saying off the record. "If you thought the Steinbrenner's spent money: You might get a lesson in why baseball needs a cap after this."
