A REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD IDEA
Barry Zito just recently recieved a mega-contract of 7 years and 18 million dollars per year! That is an insane total of 126 million dollars. The last time that amount was spent it was on the likes of Kevin Brown and Mike Hampton. How are they doing now? Brown reached a level of mediocrity after his deal and is retired. Meanwhile, Mike Hampton is not even pitching due to Tommy John surgery yet he is still receiving well over 10 million dollars per year. Sure Barry Zito will help the Giants in the competitive NL West. What doesn't help the Giants is that the rest of their team is fossilized led by the immobile Barry Bonds. I give this deal only a couple of years before the Giants deeply regret it. Scott Boras, you have ruined baseball once again...

Good to see two posts already. As for Scott Boras, I'm not sure whether to praise him for helping his clients get more money than they deserve or to condemn him, as you do, for ruining our national pastime.
I dislike Scott Boras very much as well because of all the bad he does for baseball because no player is worth what Barry Zito is being paid. It shows Barry Zito is a sell-out and doesn't really play for the love of the game and doesn't play the game to win a championship bc/ SF isn't winning one anytime soon. If you love the game you don't hire Scott Boras.
