That is odd, because as we all know the market is usually PERFECT at evaluating middle relievers. I think we can all agree that there is no easier job for a GM than assembling a bullpen.

I dont think it took a rocket scientist to realize that deal was crazy.

Because everyone knew Grabow's ERA would double this year?

People complained about the amount Grabow was given, NOT that he was given a contract. If you knew Grabow was going to be this bad, seriously, you are a fucking savant.

It's possible Hendry paid more than market price for Grabow, but I don't think its clear. Regardless, people aren't complaining about the amount, they are complaining (rightfully) about the fact he is having his worst season ever.

I admittedly didn't know that he would be this bad, but I knew he wasn't someone that could be relied on. He gives up too many hits/BBs and doesn't strike out enough guys. This isn't something new, it's been his whole career. To give you a basis of comparison, his career WHIP and K/9 numbers are extremely similar to 2008 Bob Howry.
