And let's not forget good old Carl Pavano, who we paid 38 million dollars for 9 wins over 4 seasons.
I just looked up the records of these guys and I'm really sick (maybe jealous is a better word) that teams fork over this much money for nothing. What did Feliciano and Marte ever do to warrant such good money? At least Pavano had some decent seasons...so, I could see how teams expected more from him (even though it eventually proved a big waste of money). But I look at Feliciano's record and I can't understand what they were expecting.
