    I'd rather discuss the article than engage in another epic strawman war.

    Can we try it?
    Strawmen are the RZ way.

    I think it's in the bylaws, actually.

    I'd have to agree with you. He's not prohibitive salary wise, and he's effective.

    The only reason to deal him [great trade in our favor aside] would be if a sharp decline is expected ala some of our other older relievers in the last few seasons [not an illogical assumption mind you] and you want to take him away from Dusty who won't stop using him after the expected decline.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98
