How the mighty have fallen.
At his peak, unquestionably the most dominant pitcher I have ever personally seen....the guy now has to use the WBC to audition for a major league job? I assume he's gotten offers but not to his liking, but i'm not sure of that. I haven't heard of anyone making him an offer. Hard to believe there aren't 20 teams out there trying to roll the dice with this guy. Seems like a low risk Smoltz type of contract would get it done.

That's what a rotator cuff hanging by a microscopic thread will do to your marketability. He was a true great and is a first ballot Hall of Famer in my (or any sane person's: metsguy I'm looking at you) eyes. If he doesn't get in on the first go around it's only because writers don't know their a$$es from a hole in the ground. Oh, wait...

I'm scared that the Mets might resign him and stick him in the rotation.

I'd put him in an O's uniform this year. Heck, I'd put any pitcher in an O's uniform this year.
