Ugh.
Well...he isn't going to get that -- and he shouldn't.
Abreu said he wanted $13M or something like that -- and ended up settling for WAY less. What if you could get Pedro for $5M? I say pick him up after the ASB, let him get in shape in AAA and then bring him up in late July or early August.

Pedro said he's a frontline starter and he's gonna be paid like a frontline starter. If he doesn't get the $$$ he wants, he's just not gonna play. I think there's little chance you get him for $5 M and I think there's no chance you get him to pitch out of the pen.
