He was coming off a season where he was one of the top pitchers in the league and better than Wang in every category except total Wins (and run support?).<BR/><BR/>It was considered a bargain at the time. It still might turn out to be, considering all the pitchers who got $10-12 mil a season who are career league average to below average pitchers. Even if he keeps pitching the trend of 2 good starts, 1 terrible- it might work out well. He is definitely trending up and he cant control what the pen does or when Torre decides to pull him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
