  Good Lord

Barry Zito to the Giants for seven years and $126 million.

I liked the idea of him with the Mets, but frankly I'm amused by the notion of the Giants taking on roughly the equivilant of the Bolivian national debt to hire a guy who, while good, is not exactly Sandy Koufax.

It's a seller's market out there.

I'm shocked the Mets wouldn't dig a little deeper in their purse to aquire Zito, as they've been foaming at the mouth for him.

I'm curious to see how they're now going to round out the pitching rotation.
 
They've got some good young pitchers. At this point I actually hope they just stand pat. It's not the greatest scenario, but the pitching market is so completely screwed up right now.
