Re: Sox sign Seanez

I wish I followed this stuff more closely so I could get excited on my own about it. However, I shall take your word that the Sox have made yet another solid deal.
woot.

for example:
04/05 stats
billy wagner
125.3 IP's 11HR 146K 31BB/HBP
signed a deal for 11m a year for 4 years
seanez
106.3IP 7HR 130K 43BB/HBP
signed a deal for 1.9m
now obviously, wagner is a better bet to perform at that level due to having a larger sample size and being younger. however the red sox get seanez at less than 1/5th (for 2005) the cost and no commitment (other than some cheap 06 option) beyond this year.
that should show pretty easily why the deal is very good. better than taking my word for it anyway [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
