After that, this is the worst FA class I can remember. If you need innings, you could make a small push for Dick Nolasco, but I bet the Dodgers overpay him by 60%.
No FA's for me. Nothing out there worthwhile.

I like buying up our cores arb years and put on another controlled year. Besides the security for the player and club, we avoid going into the arb hearing and the club telling him how much he sucks and deserves the lower figure.

Money well spent
