Two years, $14M. Oof. WHY did I fall for Jon Heyman's shenanigans again?

Man, the Orioles even get used to drive up the price for guys like Coco Crisp.
What the hell?

Is it just me...
Or does that sound like a ridiculous overpay?

I don’t get it at all. Oakland’s trading their young guys with team-friendly deals (Gio, Cahill, Bailey), and then they give Coco Crisp a 2-year deal and a raise (he made $5.75M last year) after he OBPs .319? I think Beane’s cracking under the pressure of this San Jose thing.

Fucking Jonah Hill must've made the deal...
or maybe he let Brad Pitt take the reigns for a day. Who knows?

according to buster olney
the A’s are trying to reach the implicit salary floor preferred by MLB and the labor union.
