Billy signs w Oakland.
 

3 years 30 mil per espn. Can't believe he got paid $10/per.

NY doesn't do it for him anymore.

First Sweeney, now Butler. The express pipeline of "professional hitters" is greased and runs directly from KC to Oakland.

overpaid

DUDE. Why did I come out here to farm? I could ground into double plays for $10M per.

Good for him, a bit surprising that Oakland would be the team that overpaid him, but everyone in KC wishes him well.

Good luck Big Bill.

Best of luck.

If only there was a repository thread for this topic.

And also, enjoy your new dugout Billy. The gravy for your country breakfast is free.

Oakland loves guys with major platoon splits and butler destroys lefties

Sad to see him go-he loved it here. Best of luck!

"Moneyball" my ass

Could be good contract if used correctly, and performs the way he did two years ago. This year could have just been an anomaly. But I'm glad it's Oakland and not us paying Billy Butterball 10M a year.
