Reply to "The Convention on Over-Use"

You know what, if any team wants to dump that type of money on any player I say that's their choice and more kudos for the player. Let me ask you about this, if it were your son and a team had the rights to make millions of dollars off of his name, wouldn't you want them to pay him well? I would for sure. That money wasn't all for talent, but his markaetablility for sure. I'll bet they recouped more than half already.

I just think a team is doing what many teams do and that is not cast off (mostly catchers) players with accurate arms (notice I didn't say high powered cannons).
If you read the article the Cards did it with Jason Motte and they have another converted catcher in the upper farm.

So you are telling me this is a new concept? Have you not seen a HS catcher or a ss pitch? You don't hear about it often most likely because it doesn't work.
I don't think that this concept is going to change MLB.

BTW, am in agreement about the Cubs, if this is their answer foe a division win, it ain't gonna happen.
