Per Steve Adams: “It’s all at the will of Arte Moreno.”
Contrary to what some think (Halo11), Minasian doesn’t use the toilet without Moreno saying it’s ok and which one he can use. Moreno is the only common denominator over his ownership. Moreno approves or denies every player acquisition and dollar spent.
Mark Lemke; 1:05 –600M for a right fielder? Baseball economics are insane. Where are all the analytics and AI to explain the idiocy of giving a RF 600M?

Fans always obsess over the total dollar commitment over many years. It’s $46MM per year, and yes the 8 WAR player last year can be more than worth that.
