CJ Wilson thread: Signed by Angels 5/$77.5 million pg 10

[rawaction]

I don't see anything wrong with what UK said. Maybe the wording isn't ideal, but it makes a lot of sense to not be sold on a 31-year old starting pitcher with only 2 years experience in that capacity. I wouldn't call him an elite pitcher. He had an elite 2011, but even without the wear-and-tear on his arm, his age leads me to believe he won't continue to put up elite numbers, even as soon as this coming season.

Marlins offering 6 years. Those guys are out of control.

[El Duderino]

as if I didn't hate the marlins enough already

[bukie]

I'll be OK, though, because if Loria ruins the franchise, they'll just move it somewhere else and give him another one.

Gun enthusiast Wilson is excited that, in Miami, he'll be able to fire his weapons on the street.

I hope he does. Takes them out on Fielder for sure.

I was about to post a video of a Grand Theft Auto: Vice City shootout then realized it might violate community standards.

I don't know about that. Since the SEC starting looking into their books that rat bastard Jeff L. is starting to spend the money he's been skimming from MLB.

 

[expletive] the "MIAMI" Marleens.

Source with knowledge of C.J. Wilson talks expects him to sign five-year deal with #Angels.

 

Sources: #Marlins have offered 6 years. #Angels have offered 5. But Wilson being swayed by chance to play at home.

I was basing it on only being able to sign a couple of Type A FA per offseason. They've got Reyes and Bell already. Seeing the new rules would help, but if they got Wilson, which seems unlikely now, I think that would have been it for them.

Under the old rules, Bell and Reyes would have been it. There were few enough Type A's that the limit was two per team.

Heyman says it's a 5/75 deal. I really would've liked to have him for that price.
