As a Red Sox fan the last couple of years have been very frustrating watching a big market team that is seemingly unwilling to spend. Right now they’re projected (Spotrac) to be about 50 million below the CBT. Add that to the mutiple last place finishes the last 5 years and the unwillingness to re-sign Mookie and Xander, it makes rooting for the Sox pretty frustrating at times.

So I’m wondering about other fan experiences (apart from the fact that basically every owner should try to be competitive). How do you feel about your team’s spending? And would it be more frustrating to root for a team that consistently doesn’t spend or a team that is constantly ‘treading water’?
