Re: Tigers give Ordonez $75M over 5 years? Wtf?

That's bad, but not even close to the fact that Richie Sexson got signed at all.

How does that relate? Sexson at least worked out for the team, had a physical, etc, etc. Magglio from everything I've read has not had a workout for anyone, and the medical reports on his knee has been sketchy. Of course not everything will be picked up by the media, so maybe he did a private workout for the Tigers, but giving him that much money for that many years is insane.
Remember, he has a degenerative osteoporosis-like knee condition. There are like no comparables to that. Sexson separated his shoulder, which of course could happen again, but others have come back successfully from it, like Jeter.
