June 8, 200719 yr We've played a little more than a 1/3 of the season. It's time to take a look at some of the worst signings of this past offseason (obviously this can change over the course of an entire season) 3. Dave Roberts Signed a 3 year 18 million dollar deal with the Giants. He is batting .216 with 2 homers and 6 rbi. He has only played in 27 games this year and is currently on the DL. 2. Vincente Padilla Re-signed with the rangers. 3 years 33.75 million dollar deal He is 2-8 with a 6.45 era! 1. JD Drew Signed a 5 year 70 million dollar deal with the redsox. He is batting .224 with 2 homers and 17 rbi. any others?
June 8, 200719 yr Tony Armas for $3.5 million for this season. He then proceeds to astound us with his 8+ ERA as a starter before being replaced in the rotation by Shawn Chacon, who has a career 5+ ERA as a starter.
June 8, 200719 yr Yall need to get rid of Littlefield. How he has kept that job for so long is astounding.
June 8, 200719 yr JP gets my vote for the worst not only because he has stunk but because he's blocking Matt Kempt.
June 8, 200719 yr Lugo and Drew are both on my fantasy team....ugh. Drew started off pretty well, but he's sucked for the three weeks or so.
June 8, 200719 yr hahahaha I was watching that live. I nominate Eric Milton, btw. Thank God this is the last year of that deal.
June 8, 200719 yr what game was this from? and dl drew is always a bad deal. he never plays hard and is very overrated. nobody likes him because of his greedy ways, especially dodger fans. worst signing easily. honorable mention to jeff weaver, 8 million to a terrible pitcher who has a 15 era and is currently on the dl. i would say mark redman, but the braves got him for cheap. the rangers are in trouble if they expect redman to save their season. while i'm at it, padilla was terrible too. barry zito doesn't look like a good deal right now though, but he's starting to turn it around.
June 8, 200719 yr Wasn't Weaver only a 1 year deal? That's not that big of a deal. LMFAO JD: Go Go Gadget Extendo Glove! That's not J.D. Drew. I'm pretty sure it's Fox's boyfriend, OMGabe Kapler.
June 8, 200719 yr Cardinal fans were outraged when they lost Weaver, even though in the regular season for them he sucked. One of the few players no longer welcome in that town. But Seattle only got him for a 1 year deal as Junior mentioned which sucks just as much for Weaver as it does for the M's, as he wanted to use this year to drive his price up since no one was going to give him 4/40 like Boras was asking for.
June 8, 200719 yr Wasn't Weaver only a 1 year deal? That's not that big of a deal. LMFAO JD: Go Go Gadget Extendo Glove! That's not J.D. Drew. I'm pretty sure it's Fox's boyfriend, OMGabe Kapler. My mistake. I couldn't really see his number because of the quality of the video, with all the talk of Drew I assumed it was him.
June 8, 200719 yr Lugo and Drew are both on my fantasy team....ugh. Drew started off pretty well, but he's sucked for the three weeks or so. Yeah, I had Lugo and Drew but dropped Drew .. ugh. Lugo hasn't been that horrible though.

June 8, 200719 yr Author Lugo and Drew are both on my fantasy team....ugh. Drew started off pretty well, but he's sucked for the three weeks or so. Yeah, I had Lugo and Drew but dropped Drew .. ugh. Lugo hasn't been that horrible though. Lugo is batting .217 3 hr and 33rbi he signed a 4 year 36 million dollar deal. Thus far it appears the redsox would have been better off buring 100 million dollars than giving it to them.
June 8, 200719 yr I meant fantasy-wise since hes 2B eligible - lol However, he's below average (imo) .. horrible leadoff though .. Coco isn't much better though. Lugo and Drew are both on my fantasy team....ugh. Drew started off pretty well, but he's sucked for the three weeks or so. Yeah, I had Lugo and Drew but dropped Drew .. ugh.

Thus far it appears the redsox would have been better off buring 100 million dollars than giving it to them. Three months into a four year deal? Yeah, horrible .. deal ..... I think I'll wait atleast a year before going that far. And either way, JD Drew isn't playing much better, and neither is Padilla.

This doesnt take account arbritration players. Cubs: $297,550,000 Giants: $208,530,000 Red sox: $170,850,000 (not including $50 million posting fee) Yankees: $61,250,000 (not including clemens) . . . . . Marlins: $925,000
June 8, 200719 yr Thats hiliarious, 300 Mill for the Cubs (and look how well they're doing~) and the Marlins spend a large .... $925,000.
