when will we stop wasting time and cash on starters that we think we can flip and start thinking about the occasional free agent that will bring more to the team
The Rangers aren't trying to flip them. They are simply trying to sirvive.

at some point you have to do more than just survive. the Rangers have basically been doing nothing for the last 5+ years but signing level 5 and below free agents with no push to be anything better than a below average ball club

Well at some point people need to realize that the previous GM is gone and the current GM is dealing with the mess he left behind, if you can't see the difference in the way the franchise has been run in the last several months, I can't help you much

I have noticed but JD is still making the decision and until he’s gone nothing has changed

But clearly things have changed, so I'm inclined to think JD is not as involved as some would like to think and blame
I grant there have been changes but JD is still the final word
