Scratching my head a bit about this whole offseason thing. Stepping back and looking at was done, and what wasn't done kinda mystifies me. Small market team signs a guy with arm questions and control problems for 12.75 mil, resigns a pitcher they didnt want for 2.5 mil. and do nothing about ss/2b with walkers health not 100% certainty...meanwhile, former all-star Jair Jurjgens has two bad months and signs with Baltimore for 1.5 mil...where were we on this one? Alex Gonzalez ss just signed for 1.5 mil...where were we again? WTF???? Pitch/catch dont report for 12 days and I'm already pissed.

Don't look now, Buccos will sign lefty Jonathon Sanchez today to a minor league deal as insurance if they dont get Lirianno.....still haven't gotten better, just rolling dice with broken merchandise...btw the A's just made a deal for Jed Lowrie and good AAA pitcher for 3 midrange prospects....somebody kidnap Billy Beane and drop him in the Burgh!!!!
