December 9, 200718 yr http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3146990 Considering he was terrible for the Red Sox, 10 million is a little high me thinks. Sad that a reliever is going to make almost as much as the Marlins. But then again, it isn't so shocking considering the deals being handed out these days.
December 9, 200718 yr Good signing for the Brew Crew. They have a great chance of winning that crappy division.
December 9, 200718 yr This is why you trade Kevin Gregg. and also, there's not much risk in a 1 year deal
December 9, 200718 yr Sometimes I don't feel that bad we are a small market team because I don't have to deal with crappy deals like this.
December 9, 200718 yr Its not a crappy deal. I actually expect him to have a good year next year and he could potentially net them some picks if he does. Its a one year deal, if he sucks oh well but they need a closer.

If he puts up the numbers he did in Texas it will be, especially for a team who can contend for the division and was faced with Turnbow or converting Dave Bush.
December 9, 200718 yr This is why you trade Kevin Gregg. and also, there's not much risk in a 1 year deal Expecially when you consider they'll probably get draft picks after the season. And the ability to trade him for something if he's solid and they're out of it like TEX did.
December 9, 200718 yr even in today's market 10 million for a guy who has had major injury problems and is coming off a so-so year is a bit much , overall it is a good signing if torres keeps playing , gagne is healthy , and you have turnbow , combined they arent going to be as good as Cordero was last year but the drop off might not be that much
December 10, 200718 yr Um, This signing is idiotic. Gagne isn't even worth the 5 million he made last season. Hopefully this deal doesn't bite a team like the brew crew in the back because it'll hurt more than if it would be SAY the Yankees!
December 10, 200718 yr They would have been better off keeping Francisco Cordero. No idea how Gagne was able to get $10 million, considering his poor performances last year. I agree that it seems like there could be a market for Kevin Gregg.
December 10, 200718 yr They would have been better off keeping Francisco Cordero. :| He only cost more and they would have been hooked on him for 3 years. Cordero was awful away from Miller Park and over the 2nd half of last year.
