It must be nice to always believe you know better, to always think you're the smartest person in the room.

too many years, too much money, 1st round draft pick (#31 overall) PLUS a supplemental 1st round pick. all for not much of a need. bunch o' bollocks.

betchya he sucks early, gets hurt and barely pitches throughout the life of the stoopid ass deal...

Cashman panics. Bad move.

Too much money, but not too many years. And he's worth more than a draft pick.
I guess I like it, on the whole.

[3] Yeah, I love Cliff's piece! Someone emailed it to me today.

[6] How so? Was he really that moved by the Farnsworth signing? I don't see this as a panic move.
