Worth and things

By: EVanDril on Wednesday, 30 April 2008

I think worth is only what you make it. Arguably nobody in any major sport is worth what it is they are paid. But, at the time, I really liked the signing of Zito. Maybe not for the vast amount of money they paid, but it seemed like a flyball pitcher in San Francisco's park was a good fit.     But with his decreased velocity, Zito had to be relegated to the bullpen. You can't just let him, day-in and day-out get shelled. It's demoralizing for him, and more importantly, his team. Every fifth day they know that they have to score 8 or more runs.    So, it's unfortunate for the Giants and their fans, but it's a necessary move.

Is it mental?

How does a pitcher with that much talent fall so hard?

Loved Zito . . .

. . . and the 200+ innings he gave the A's, but the reality is that he was never worth what the Giants gave him. Just another reason why Magowan has to be one of the most overrated GMs in the game. The reality is that you DO NOT put your supposed ace in the bullpen. Let him work it out on the mound. It is one month into the season, people.
