well when you become GM of a major league organization go ahead and pass on finley while getting in the beltran sweepstakes and see where that gets you. finley was the best CF on the market besides carlos beltran, and his asking price is ridiculous. i do not think he will decline, i think he's been a very consistent player over the years, and every GM/scout asked about the finley signing agreed it was a great signing for the angels.

Sorry my opinion doesn't agree with what a few interviewed GMs and scouts said, the numbers show that Finley is starting to decline, because of that I don't think that it was the greatest idea to commit that much money over two years to him. I'm reading on espn now that its only $13 million instead of the $20 that was initially reported. If the contract is for only $13 then this is obviously a better signing than I originally thought, but it still carries some risk.

Why does me defending my opinion turn into me "scraping for reasons to still be right"? He's a center fielder who's over 40, his patience at the plate and on base skills have been declining, and UZR does not have him as a good defensive center fielder, thats why I think this is a somewhat risky signing. I don't care if I'm considered "right" by anyone, I'm just supporting my opinion. Sorry if you have a problem with that.
