In the Beginning of Relationships

January 10, 2010

This guy is now a Cincinnati Red. Yup, really.

When I first heard about the Aroldis Chapman deal I thought: that’s a lot of money to pay a guy who hasn’t done anything in the Majors.

Then, when I saw how the deal was broken out, I realized that there just isn’t much to complain about.

Excellent move by the Reds. I’d rather they spend $25 million on a guy who has the potential to be a #1 starter, than $46 million on a closer.

    I love the move. The only bad part is now I’m going to have such high hopes for the next 3 years that its only setting me up for the eventual collapse on a road trip out west after the all star break. The promise of young talent will do that to you I guess.
