    Most one sided deal ever?????

    Wasn't Drew Brees part of that too?

    Don't Fall For It!

    This kind of spending happened a few years back when A-rod got $25M/year and it came back down to earth. To say that the market is set and won't EVER go down is a far stretch. There will be a market correction when people realize how stupid some of the spending was.

    Don't Fall For It!

    There is much more risk in paying Zito 16M over 5 than paying Johnson say 20M over the next two seasons or even one season at 16M. If Johnson doesn't do anything fine you have one year of a bad contract and eat it and move on. Zito has a lot of innings on him and hasn't had much better stats in...

    RJ back to Dbacks?

    I heard they were throwing in a few prospects in order to pick up Robby Hammock in the deal.

    RJ back to Dbacks?

    It's great to see how fast a rumor, true or untrue, can spread. Anyone can make up a rumor like that.

    Chris Webber = Our 2007 Tim Thomas?

    Rose has a chance at a championship and the lockeroom sounds like a pretty entertaining and welcoming one so i don't see why he wouldn't give a ringing endorsement.

    Rocky Balboa (Rocky VI)

    This was actually a decent movie. I was completely shocked that it was good at all seeing as I have been making fun of it since it was announced. The story isn't bad and its a fairly simple film.

    RJ back to Dbacks?

    I could deal with this. It helps to solidify the rotation and not much is given to the Yanks in return. Plus if RJ gets his 300 win here it guarantees he goes into the Hall as a Dback.

    RJ back to Dbacks?

    The major leaguer is probably Byrnes or a reliever and the extension would actually probably make it less than $16M for the Dbacks this year to have johnson.

    http://www.azsportshub.com/general/a-christmas-miracle/ If it's true it could be interesting. At least its some kind of noise this offseason.

    Don't Fall For It!

    I'm sorry but anyone who is upset over Gonzo being gone is being more sentimental than actually being a baseball minded fan. Byrnes is cheaper than Gonzo and is going to give better production plus is less of a defensive liability. The team is young and upcoming and this isn't a great market to...

    Name someone who would be a better backup next year. And if the words John and Navarre come out of your mouth your arizona sports fanship should be revoked jk.

    Kurt warner: Want him back next year?

    He is the best backup we can probably have. Plus he played well enough to keep the Cards in the lead today. The guy is probably a good influence on Leinart. If he doesn't want to retire I have no problem with the guy being around as the backup.

    Don't Fall For It!

    Oh I agree I think that they should have the money but the claim is that they don't because of differed payments. If they can't find more than a million to offer a pitcher who wants to come here and may have accepted a little less to do so I just don't see them finding $100M for Zito. This is a...

    Don't Fall For It!

    I'm not being stupid. What did Gonzo do before or after that 57 HR performance? He hadn't given any indication that he would hit anything like that. He was a surprise that season and the lineup seemed like it might lack pop at the time. You under estimate both Jackson and Tracy. Tracy had 27...

    Offseason News & Rumors

    No, they just can't spend irresponsibly. That his how they got into the current financial situation. In order for this team to get out of their financial hole they have to be fiscally responsible for the next few years while everyone else spends money like daddy just gave them the credit card.

    We have the help pitching wise though. We have Hernandez and we have Davis. They will provide a lot of help and innings.

    Matt Williams outside of 1994 never hit more than 35 HR's in a season and in his time with the Dbacks he only had one season over 75 RBI.
