Is there a team in baseball that wastes more money on its bullpen than the Angels?

Subbing in for tomterp here :)

How many years of team control do we have of him? I assume we had two.

Not necessarily because he can opt out.

Anybody who doesn't think hammonds gives credit where credit is due hasn't been paying attention for the last 3 years.

thank you chief.  but some on here - cough, cough won't name names but you know who you are - are so blind and have the LANC agenda up your butt so far you can't see that i'll give credit when credit is due (werth, zimmerman, this particular case).  

and all i said was maybe burnett liked the money not DC itself.

By the way, this is a terrible signing. Burnett went 1-7 last year! You don't re-sign guys with records like that.

Glad to have Burnett and his sideways cap here for another few years.  Good job Rizzo.  Now go get a 1B.

No I'm serious. At the end of the day, it's about winning and losing, and he lost us 7 games. We need guys who can drive in lots of runs like Jorge Cantu.

Okay, I thought I made it blatant with that post. I suppose you don't read my posts... I'm a huge supporter of advanced stats. Both of those posts were completely sarcastic.

I'm freaking confused about whats been going on on this page.

Anyway, I've been a big defender of Burnett since his trade here. I think I am going with a Burnett avatar at the start of ST.

Especially for the Brian Roberts', Jeffrey Hammonds' and other orioles of the world.
