Just got off work and saw the news. Gut-wrenching.
However, if these reports are true, it's important that we move on from this, just like the the FO will. There's no denying Teixeria's talent. He would've been a great fit in the heart of our defense. However, the world is full of talented players and I'm putting my money on that the FO has already begun preparations for new potential targets for NYC.
My greatest fear is that the FO will make a "panic" decision and sign a player that doesn't fit the culture and vision of the team. However, ever since PV and his staff were brought on board, I can see the patience in their decision making. PV and Reyna has a vision for this team, something that was blurred last season. I can say for certainty that they'll look to improve our team. If it's not Teixeria, it'll be someone else.
We still have time. The offseason isn't over tomorrow. We'll be linked to players soon...perhaps they'll potentially be an even greater fit for our team than Teixeria.
