Reply to "Yu Darvish"

CJ wore out his welcome, under performed and pouted in response to criticism of his 2011 post season starts. Maybe its a huge risk, signing YD, but there is no doubt resigning Wilson was going to have a continued negative impact in the clubhouse.

An interesting web-article came out today, polling 10 MLB scouts/executives with international experience and 1st hand exposure to Darvish. These dudes were asked to scale Darvish, comparing him against a list of 5 right-handers, varying from good to great. The question was this: "Based on talent alone, would you take Darvish ahead of this pitcher?". The 5 guys in question were Ricky Nolasco, Ian Kennedy, Matt Garza, Zack Greinke and Justin Verlander.

The vote, a unanimous 10-0.

So, I guess we'll see. GED10DaD
