    Not sure how I feel about this. On one had Crabbe is probably my 2nd or 3rd favorite player on the team. On the other hand, it pretty much guarantees someone is gonna get traded within the next year.

    Whatever, glad to have you back Crabbeman! (for now)

    Rather trade something for something than lose something for nothing.

    I knew we'd match him, no sense letting him go for nothing.

    Eh. I think, like many people, I have gone back and forth on this. I'm just going to have to trust Olshey's move and know that he and Paul Allen have a pretty good idea of what to expect in the future, financially speaking.

    Only reason I can think of is they don't think his contract can be moved. I don't agree, but I can see the argument.

    What is there to say that hasn't already been said a thousand times in the other thread? It's a terrible contract with that trade kicker, because now it means we're pretty much stuck with the guy.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I think I agree with this decision. Paying $18.5M to him has a LOT of sticker shock, but I don't think this contract will look crazy in a season or two. Salaries on their way up.

    I'm still not anywhere close to considering this a slam dunk good decision, though.
