I understand that, but for 1.5 million I think it would have been worth a shot. Hell, we paid Dempster that to not pitch for a year IIRC.

And if he's remotely healthy or successful, the M's are gonna be paying him way more than that. The Cubs could have paid him $1.5 M to not pitch; but if he did anything decent(which would be the whole idea in the first place), they'd be on the hook way more than that.
