Chris Davis $12.7 I immediately felt like I went too high "over paid" on him. I knew replicating last season was a long shot but I sure thought he would have more than 1HR at this point. Nothing says bad contract quite like regretting it about a month in!

Nothing says bad contract quite like regretting it about a month in! A month in? I said immediately! If he goes 100/30/100, I can deal with it. The reason I immediately didn't like the contract was because, I feel that he's nearly untradable at that salary. You obviously don't sign FA's with the intent of trading them but you should always leave yourself flexibility.

Maybe we need to start a support group for managers with underachieving first basemen who have big long term contracts

How about a support group for managers who's players come off the DL, start playing amazing, and then decide they like the DL better? I'm looking at you Devin Mesoraco!
