Torii Hunter Retires.If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

Probably a good bet for someone with his injury history to just take the money.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

In other news, the Padres are said to be looking at Ian Desmond. And if he doesn't retire, Mark Buehrle is "likely to pitch for the Cardinals", according to Toronto newspaper reports.
$15.8 million for Anderson is fucking INSANE!"I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

The Dodgers needed to pay Anderson that much, they need to stay the course.
2016 - ???
2015 Dan Haren + Brian Wilson $19.5m
2014 Josh Beckett $13m
2013 Josh Beckett $13m
Sure, they'll spend $30m on Carl Crawford and Michael Morse. But that's wasted money on hitting - everyone knows wasted money on pitching wins championships - look at what SF accomplished with the Zito contract.people called me an idiot for burning popcorn in the microwave, but i know the real truth. - nullnor
