GreenSox

Yea, I got the right one. He comes to the AL and asked to pitch in the clutch and sports a 6.2 era in that effort. Sounds awfully Rick Whitesque to me Or Todd Ritchie - although his era was only 6.06

Didn't we just not sign a couple of our own bullpen pitchers with similar credentials for the want of 3 or so million? It's almost like KW is reading Peter Gammons articles as his scouting reports - the Nomar articles for the last 5 years (Gammons has told us how great he is) and the Williamson article when the redsox got him last fall

I guess so - but it's not like Williamson is anything special. 6.20 ERAs aren't that hard to find for free. In the meantime, we have a worse hitter than maggs for a year AND we blow an opportunity to get something for him by trading him for pitching and young players.

I agree with you Why do we have to give prospects back? KW, even in his good trades, always seems to overpay on paper. And I don't like the maggs for nomar part of the deal either, but that's another story.
