Grasshopper, you're now learning that making a deal with the rocket is like making a deal with the devil. Ask someone from Boston and he'll tell you how upstanding and honest a person Roger is.

The only thing that gets my goat is that by talking the Yankees out of offering him arbitration "just in case" - he prevented the Yankees from getting compensatory draft picks from the Astros. That is a dick move.
Otherwise, I (and Thurgreed, I'm sure) stand by this assessment:
2003:
Mussina, Pettite, Clemens, Wells, Weaver
2004:
Mussina, Vasquez, Brown, Contreres, Lieber.
But for Mussina, we've gotten better at every spot in the rotation. And but for Lieber, we've gotten a lot younger, too.
