Its probably a reason that some pitchers who were free agents last year signed one-year deals – they knew there could be a goldmine this year.
I don't know that I buy all of that.

I mean, Jake Peavy's deal (2 years, $29 million) doesn't seem crazy at all. And he was one of the 3-4 best guys on the market.

That's actually a considerable discount on what Peavy made a season ago.

I think we'll see some inflation, but not crazy, crazy numbers.
