Nats interested in signing him, that would suck.

Furcal signs with Marlins.

Another ex-Brave goes to Miami. Rafael Furcal signs a one year deal with the Marlins.

I feel like [MENTION=71]CrimsonCowboy[/MENTION] is my Twitter doppelganger.

Wilson gets 10 million to be a set up guy in LA. Holy shat. 9 million option for another year. Wowza

Why would anyone in their right mind offer 10 years to a 31 YO player? There is no way that works out for any team.

The Yankees can do what they want, so it wouldn't really matter for them. For nearly every other team, it's an incredibly dumb move. For a team like the Mariners, it's bat-**** insane.

The conventional wisdom is you can't concentrate too much of your payroll in one or two players. With Cano and Felix, the Mariners will definitely be testing that proposition.

This is hilarious, they signed McCann and Ellsbury and let their best player walk!!!

I just think about the ways they can reappropriate that money ... especially if A-Rod is also going to be off the books. :stupid:
