The one that jumps out to me is AJ Burnett, I mean does this guy really think he'll do better then $15.3M?
 
Then again, he could have really hated Philly that much....



Steve I see it this way..................

#1 = $15.3M for one year
#2 = $15M for two years that some team MIGHT offer
#3 = out of baseball

At his age & his diminished pitching skills I would take that FINAL one year contract.

Yeah, but he has made enough over his career that the 0.3 is really tiny & he doesn't need it if he was that unhappy... Plus Philly could've made life difficult in a manner we don't know...

As long as he's not our headache though, I really don't care...
