    So they don't go for Sheets because of injury concern...yet we give AJ Burnett $82mil...? Don't know if that makes sense. Why not roll the dice on the guy with a 2 year contract with a team option for the 3rd...something to that extent. That way if he isn't healthy, you don't have to deal with his contract for long. Quite frankly, I think it'd be worth it. He's a dominant pitcher when he's healthy and he'd give us hands down the best rotation in baseball.

    Red flags came up.

    They made the right decision.

    I just wonder what those "red flags" are? Is it his history of injury? Because that's well documented and everyone knows about it.

    Probably more arm troubles.
