Baseball Is Loaded
Have you noticed the player signings in the past few days? Hanley Ramirez just signed a big contract with Florida. Scott Kazmir just got a deal from the Rays and now Ryan Braun got an eight-year deal from the Brewers.
Clearly, the game is loaded with money if the "small" market clubs can make these types of deals and it just reinforces how important the farm system is going to be in the future. I would guess that fewer and fewer true stars will see free agency and as with anything, lower supply means greater demand. That means Sabathia and Mark Teixeira will probably hit the lottery this offseason and any superstars who do make it to free agency will do likewise.
Big start for Kennedy today, they really need him to step up and guess who got sent down to make room for him? (Do you really have to guess, it's the $46-million dollar man and I don't think we can rebuild him)
