Really Jeff... Really?
Ok, so what is going through the mind of Jeff Weaver, or as I like to refer to him as Shaggy. The man has a lifetime ERA of 5.75 and is thinking of taking a one year contract because and I quote FoxNews.com “Weaver, 30, is declining to pursue a two-year deal because of his desire to re-enter the free-agent market after next season, according to a source close to the negotiations.” Does this guy not remember his ERA was over 6 in June and he was released from the Angels for of all people his younger brother to join the roster? If I was his agent I would negotiate the longest contract I could with the most guaranteed money I could get. The man has 86 wins an 101 losses lifetime with 13 complete games in his 8 year career. Take all the money you can Jeff! This is a pitchers market for crying out loud. Wanting to re-enter the free agent pool next year is going to be tough when people forget what you did in the postseason and remember your 2007 ERA of over 10 and eventual release from whatever team is still watching their TiVo highlights of the World Series and does not remember any of the past 7 years prior. Whatever Jeff Weaver is on I want 5 of them.
