bingo! ..can we please get real for a minute? Even during last season there were a lot of rumblings about something having to be done about mookie's contract and impending free agency. Everyone who didn't think something was going to happen wasn't being realistic.
Now, as to the issue of season ticket holders, the ethics of what you say depends on when the bills for the season tickets went out. Jh made his famous "mandate-not-a-mandate' statement in september. If the bills went out before his statement i'll agree with you but if they went out afterward st purchasers were given fair warning that the team could look much different in 2020. Anyone who purchased st's after jh said that and didn't recognize the strong possibility that mookie would not be with the team either wasn't using reasoning in their thoughts or believe(d) that this reset is good for the team in the long run.
And for the record, i was in favor of holding off until mid-season and see how things were going but at the same time i recognized that the return on mookie mid-summer may(or may not) be as great as it would be now. It was a gamble i was willing to take but it's not my team or money.
