Seems like guys are going for far cheaper now than they were at the start of the off-season.
A couple months ago we heard Abreu wanted 3/45, and now he has an offer for 1/8? Wow.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
And what's interesting is the pitchers are still going for normal price or close to it. I can't imagine Oliver Perez getting much more than 12 million bucks in other years for example.

That would be absolutely ridiculous. The guy's overpaid as it is. He looks like a top 10 pitcher in baseball for stretches but then disappears. You can't depend on him at all.

I agree with you Clapp. Rotoworld is goofy.
