A Brief Yet Triumphant Post
Just a short post today, as this is my last day of work before Christmas and I have to finish a week's worth of work.
Apparently the Armando Benitez to Florida trade talks are breaking down. Oh well, it was a beautiful dream while it lasted.
At this point I don't know if Benitez's value can get any lower without him being declared legally dead. There is most likely no way the Giants can get anything of value without paying almost his entire salary.
The best option may just be to wait it out and hope he does well in the first few months of the season and dump him the minute anyone offers a semi-decent warm body, preferably younger than 25.
It's risky as there is no assurance he'll make it to spring training let alone a few months into the season. But if he does make it, the market will be so much better the Giants may actually get something of value rather than a straight dump. And if they're going to be paying him either way, they might as well get something for their money.
