Re: Madsen already shut down in ST
Yep, I breathed a sigh of relief when the Reds didn't sign him.
I wish him well, but it was just too risky.

Re: Madsen already shut down in ST
I know he had a few bad outings late in the year, but I'm really surprised that the Angels are so jittery about handing the closer reigns to Frieri. That guy is filthy, and I'd have much more confidence in him than a post-surgery Madson.

Re: Madsen already shut down in ST
I was interested in re-signing him, but my perspective has changed on post-injury signings. On the "Sign Brian Wilson" thread I stated as much. Seems like a team rehabs the guy and then he goes elsewhere. And they usually don't give you much in that rehab season anyway. It's not worth it.
