proffesional service is a must

Unless Dave edited this in (“The question for him will always be health, but a one year deal mitigates a large portion of the risk that comes along with an injury prone arm like Pavano’s.”) after you commented, I suggest you read the entire article before commenting.

I’m pointing out his options, he’s not going to get a shot in the AL again (maybe the M’s would take a flyer on him given their OF defense?). As a flyball pitcher, I’m sure he’ll do well somewhere like, say, Dodger Stadium, or Petco Park.

The Padres put a waiver claim on him, the Brewers were willing to deal for him, teams from NPB have inquired about him so commenting about him going to the NL or Japan has some merit.

“an outdated system that will care little about his 4.00 FIP and +3.7 win value from 2009. Instead, he’ll have to build a case for his paycheck around a 5.10 ERA in his first healthy season since 2004.”

you may claim that this system is outdated but you fail to mention that he’s an injury prone bum who lied to his team about a car accident. character issues should and WILL be taken into considerations -not just your fantastical projections and useless numbers

There’s a discrepancy between leagues, but come on. Igawa would get lit up if he were a Chicago Cub too. The NL does not belong in any grouping with Japan and AAA.

Having watched Igawa pitch, I don’t find it hard to believe at all. LH and RH batters have lit him up, so I don’t think he’s capable of pitching in relief. At this stage, it’s either AAA, the NL or Japan.

If he stays in Scranton, Cash doesn’t have to be reminded of his $46 million mistake every time he glances out to the bullpen.

I find it hard to believe Igawa couldn’t at least be useful as a LOOGY instead of rotting away at AAA.

Apologize for your bad attitude and maybe you’ll get your $40,000,000 back.

PS: Go have a chat with Kei Igawa. I believe he has some of your money as well.
