That's pretty cool

Moreover, it makes me just that much more jealous of the Red Sox front office. I know the Rays are on top there but to see a big market team getting that much value is pretty nuts. Bastards.

Ugh it's sickening isn't it

And imagine if they had been able to add Tex, plus some of the other guys they’ve added this winter.

So pretty much they got what they paid for. That's not a high standard, is it?
