Wow, Zito with biggest pitcher's contract ever......

[Crazy Like a Fox]

and the young Cain will surely have a better year in 2007.



How can the Giants give the biggest pitcher's contract ever to a #2?



I know Zito is at a nice age, has won a Cy Young and never gets hurt yada yada. But this is ridiculous. He's not a great pitcher, he's a good pitcher. The last 3 years Zito has a 4.32 e.r.a. pitching at home in one of the best pitcher's parks in baseball.



I guess the Gil Meche contract looks worse but I'm befuddled by a team that doesn't usually spend very much money to throw $130 million at a guy who'll give you maybe 15 wins with a 3.80 e.r.a.



I don't see anybody saying at any point during his contract that he was worth it....ok, maybe Chest but then again he thinks Swisher's .240 career average deserves a 7th round pick.



What a joke.
