It’s like how they put more value on hosting the all star game than getting more out of the trade pieces they had at the time. To heck with an exhibition game, make the team better. I scratched my head on signing that terrible hitting SS from Cuba too. They spent a lot on him, where’s he at? Why focus on a future .200 hitting, utility, defensive replacement guy?

Yup, he got paid for two no hitters in 6 months or whatever and basically an average career otherwise.
