Offseason Mistakes MLB Teams Won't Be Able to Recover from

Through less than two months of MLB offseason activity, the following teams have already done irreparable damage to themselves.

We've witnessed baseball's version of binge eating from several clubs this winter, those who made big-name acquisitions that they'll inevitably regret, both in the short term and several years down the road. Meanwhile, heavy-spending franchises who expect to contend immediately made questionable decisions that will ultimately impede them from qualifying for the 2014 playoffs.

Although additional shrewd moves can minimize these mistakes, they won't fully offset them.
