    Braves got BJ Upton for 5 years $75 million
    Career .255 hitter.
    overpaid?
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)

    consensus is that he did ... acne as evidence ... also, apparently he has admitted to at least one journalist that he had used ...

    No way in the World the Mets should have signed Wright to contact like that. Talk about strictly a PR move.

    Boston close to 3 years with Napoli. Interesting. Not a game changer.

    Dan Haren to the Nats for 1 year at $13 mil. Technically too much money for a guy who had a trade voided because of his back, but you're always going to overpay for 1 year and there is no risk.

    If they don't do something brilliant like shut Stasburg down, that pictching staff could be something.
