Fish in a Barrel
It's almost too easy, but I have to mock Dr. Phil for updating his rather...errrr...oh, the hell with politeness, let's just call it sprocking stupid mathematical system for judging off-season talent acquisition:
Jim's already ripped on Dr. Phil for this idiotic accounting system. For further proof, see the above paragraph, where the A's get props for signing Emil Brown and the Reds get a plus one for signing Affeldt. Neither is a horrible, horrible signing, but neither are they anything to get overly excited about.
PS -- Remember, this guy has a Hall of Fame ballot. I weep for the future...
5. Atlanta's trade for Mark Kotsay and the recent signings of Jon Lieber (Cubs), Mike Cameron (Milwaukee), Emil Brown (Oakland) and Jeremy Affeldt (Cincinnati) have caused slight changes in the plus-minus inventory numbers from this winter's transaction. In terms of proven players added, the leaders are Detroit (+3), the White Sox (+2), Tampa Bay (+2), Toronto (+1), Houston (+1) and Cincinnati (+1). Houston's improvement comes with a big asterisk, however, as Tejada's status for 2008 is uncertain. The teams leaking the most proven talent are St. Louis (-5), Oakland (-4) and Florida (-2).
