So many of you are so quick to dump on Rizzo for the Werth contract, but seem to want us to sign someone to a similarly bad deal for the sake of doing something.
4 years and 58 mil is too much for Buerhle.
6 years and 106 is too much for Reyes
10 years and 220 is way too much for any 32 year old player (Pujols)
6 years is too much for any starting pitcher, much less a #3 (Wilson)
I want to see us improve, but I don’t want to throw another anchor contract on this team either. We can get by with Werth’s, let’s not add to it.
Fielder is a guy that seems worth the big bucks, but his body concerns me.
I think we might be better off trying to pull a deal.
