AJ Burnett? Have we not learned our lesson from Pavano, Carl?
Maybe it's New York media hype or maybe its window dressing, but the offer to AJ Burnett better be fictitious. The idea is to get better starting pitching, correct? It won't happen with AJ, who's missed significant time with arm troubles in two of the previous three seasons. Don't be fooled by the amount of innings logged (221)last year or the strikeouts (231).
Burnett can't trusted. Besides, Brian, you should have learned your lesson signing pitchers to big money after their career year. See Wright, Jared and Pavano, Carl.
Besides isn't it suspicious that the Big 3 (Burnett, Pavano, Beckett) Florida Marlin pitchers spent siginificant amount of time of the DL during their careers? I'm sure it's just a coincidence however.
Better throw the checkbook at CC because if you comeback in Spring Training with only Burnett and Derek Lowe to show for it, I think it might be time for Stick to drive the big boy bus.
But what do I know...I'm just a blogger/
7:55 pm --The NY Rangers have just given up another shorthanded goal, their league leading 7th...WTF?
