[Edgy MD]

We haven't taken the official temperature on deals this offseason. We ought.

Like. The team could have used him last year and I'm hoping he stays injury free in 2016.

Indifferent, another payday with nothing to go on.

[Fman99]

Yeah, indifferent. Seems pricey to me for a guy who couldn't get/stay on the mound.

[Centerfield]

I like this deal too. Not nearly as much as the Walker deal, but still a net gain, I think.

Seems like a bit much to pay, but I guess that's the market.

[Lefty Specialist]

Indifferent. I know it's the market, but I'm not sure a guy coming off multiple broken arms will be worth it.

That's rather shortsighted. Blevins was out because a line drive broke his friggen arm. It's not like it's a chronic condition, or that it's likely to recur.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Except, y'know, it already recurred.

Weird market. He broke his arm twice, having come off an off year, and got a RAISE.

I think I'd rather have him than Bastardo at HIS likely price.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Like is in a rather curious landslide. Is someone stuffing the ballot box?

[Ceetar]

love it. There is literally no downside and Blevins is as decent a LOOGY candidate as any. I might have issues ultimately Collins use of him, but having another body for bullpen depth is always nice, for what's basically cheap.
