Faneca Question – Answered

I’ve already presented some numbers showing why he may or may not be a good fit. In my unscientific poll, BGO readers overwhelmingly wanted to bring him to town, with nearly half of all readers suggesting that we get him only if he comes cheap. The deal is said to be a 1-year pact worth about $2.5 million. Is $2.5 mildo cheap enough? That’s tip money for the McCaskey’s at the yacht club. This deal should have been made.
