yeah, i was really leery about this. i just know i need some more hitting and my pitching is pretty solid. i hate losing barry and now i kind of wish i would have waited and seen what else i could have gotten. oh well, we shall see how things go.

Great deal for Boston. Got a frontline starter for a bunch of guys he didn't want who are older with salaries and not much in the way of young talent. Seems he could have netted a lot more for Zito. But, deals happen all the time where someone is better, the fact is Mike stepped up and made an offer.
Same goes for Bob as he made on offer on Valentine, when I would have thought Valentine would bring more.
But, it happens everyday. That's part of the game. Happens in MLB also. Mark McGwire for Blake Stein, TJ Mathews, and Eric Ludwick. Jim Edmonds for Kent Bottenfield and Adam Kennedy. The list goes on and on.
