So we agree that he's better. He's obviously younger. He's under team control for four years. But Buerhle is the better option because he's more expensive?
I'd also say that trading for four years of arbitration with a good left handed starter isn't exactly the cheapest way out either.
STOP MAKING SENSE
Also, when people talk about wear and tear, Buerhle has 10x the wear and tear that Gio does. It's just sour grapes and fishing for complaints.
