They signed him? $16 mil over two years isn't that much money these days. 41 years old though...could be risky.
As long as we are going to live in a capitalist system you have to support the players' right to make as much money as the system will bear. Anything else is hypocrisy.

Today they signed Kenny Rogers to a $16 million dollar two-year contract. LOL. Pathetic.
Where will it end for these baseball players? Their salaries are completely ridiculous.

But the point is that if you DO support capitalism, you MUST support the right of baseball players to make as much money as they can. To support one without the other is hypocritical.
Why don't you get in on this Medieval Diplomacy thing I'm organizing?
Originally posted by darvlayHmm, true. Hopefully J.J. Hardy and Ricky Weeks will help carry a bit of the load as well. Along with Carlos Lee and Branyon (hopefully not so many strikeouts this year) they should be alright. We'll see I guess.
They have that Prince guy, don't they? He's supposed to be a big up-and-comer...
