I keep seeing over and over here the opinion that every team (not named the marlins) is overpaying for pitching.

 

There is something called supply and demand. Starting pitching is king and with very limited supply.

I actually think the Dodgers signed Perez for what he's worth.

Wade Miller.

Derek Lowe but ya didn't hear it from me :plain

I wouldn't mind having this unsung hero of the Red Sox staff the past few years except for the fact that Borass has driven his price up like 1000 percent over what he is worth.

We've got the defense why not!

Couldn't agree with you more, but of course something can always be done and ya never know, don't doubt Beinfest, and again none of this is coming from me, it's a little birdy

How about Jose Lima @ $2.5 million for one year. A true bargain.

Randy Johnson at $16 million per year is still a bargain.

Not quite a "bargain," but not overpaying.

 

I'd say Wade Miller or Matt Mantei or Alfonseca are the three biggest "steals" of the offseason.

The dude that signed with the Bosox for 3 years at 21. Im forgetting his name. The Cub with the weird chin.

You're thinking of Matt Clement...which would have been a great fit here...

No one. Pitching one or two games a week for about 6 months doesn't warrent over 5 million.

look at the pitchers the marlins sign. there ya go.
