April 23, 200520 yr Linky That makes two young Athletics inked through their arbitration years in Harden and Crosby. Pretty good deal. Hopefully Crosby can bounce back from his injury.
April 23, 200520 yr Good signing. Get the guy locked up cheaply before he breaks out and expects alot of money, similar to how Kenny locked up Uribe.
April 23, 200520 yr Crosby will now hit 400/60/200 evry year of that contract. It has to happen, i mean Billy Beane is a genius.
April 24, 200520 yr I don't know much about Crosby, but this could backfire big time. For example, what if the Sox had done this with Caruso after his rookie season?
April 24, 200520 yr QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 24, 2005 -> 01:39 PM) I don't know much about Crosby, but this could backfire big time. For example, what if the Sox had done this with Caruso after his rookie season? I don't think it will. From all reports he's a stand up guy who's a really hard worker. Over 20 HR's in his 1st season hitting in Oakland, and he hit over .300 in AAA. But there's always the dreaded sophomore slump or second year blues (as Aussies call it) isn't there.
