Scary thought, #NCState’s Elliott Avent tells me Carlos Rodon’s slider/cutter are much better than last year. That is scary. #mlbdraft

A few details on Scott Kazmir's free agent deal with the A's: $4MM signing bonus, $7MM in 2014, $11MM in '15. Gets $500K if traded.

Nope. Can't do it. I really wanted to carry through on the motif of this Monday's 3 things: laziness.
But, this one just takes the cake. Let me get this straight. Scott Kazmir, he of the 5.02 ERA in 457 innings since 2009, got $11 million in each of the next two seasons, but it's Scott Feldman, who got $12 million in 2014, $10 million in 2015 and $8 million in 2016 AND who had a 4.66 ERA in HIS last 478 innings, who's the travesty signing and who made a mockery of this winter's free agent market?
Right.
