    Most fidgety batting stances? Nomar and Jeter top my list.

    Good to hear, and why you always ought to check your facts/wait til more come out.

    I don't know players by letter. But it was sarcasm.

    And go in with no #2? Not sold.

    That's team Cook/Padilla. Get it straight!

    And Crawford isnt a lock to have a comeback season.

    I don't even recall those two contract prices, and they were somewhat relied on to try and be starters. That is definitely not a low risk.

    I think some people, if not most, view low risk high reward and "low cost, high potential" as interchangable. Not necessarily even a spin campaign or a lack of knowledge, its just a similar way of putting things.

    And thats part of the risk too.

    I'd have to agree with physical performance. However, this goes right back to my original point that players have the choice not to do it, at the risk of not being an impact player in the first place.

    Zumaya was a penny stock because he was cheap and unlikely to have a high return. an investment is a risk, and it isnt even debatable. The risk isnt 1D like you seem to think, Ted. You're completely ignoring the financial investment, and saying the reward is the risk. That's a ridiculous way to look at it unless you're counting on it to be a major contributor. You buy a loaf of bread for a dollar and you take a slice off to find out theres a big f***in piece of mold on it, is a dollar lost a big deal? Nope, not unless you took a bite and got sick from that moldy bread (signed it to a major league deal and blindly expected a dumpster purchase to work out). Next thing you know you're in the ER (in second place or worse) because of food poisoning (blown saves, a .106 batting average leading off, a John Lackey in the rotation)

    Yeah, everyone has a different view of what the risk/reward is. This is going to be as bad as that big market/small market discussion, so..... Yeah.
