Yeah, I guess a 4-A is just the roster fodder. You can actually succeed with that player if enough of them have a good year. I always thought the Dodgers last year were a team of replacement level players with a pitching staff of 7 quality starters, Tony Cingrani and a bullpen.
I wonder how long it takes to negotiate an average FA contract. Does it take 4 hours, 4 days, a whole week here and there? If so, whatever time was spent signing Jeff Manship seems like it could be better invested.
I think the only guys out there now who interest me are Arrieta and Darvish, more Darvish. If he ends up in the NL-C, it won't be with the Reds or the Parrots.
