I know all the free agents just want to automatically turn down QO's but it could end up costing you the first half of the seasons if teams don't want to give up a draft pick for you. Maybe MLB should leave the QO system how it is except altering it to where only once in your career are you subject to receiving a QO.

Yadi probably took one look at that contract Atlanta gave him and said "handle your [expletive] in Chicago, I'm watching the Blues win"

If it is $13MM for the rest of the season, it is more like 0.5/$13MM or the equivalent of $26MM AAV. Which still isn't terrible--just setting the record straight on what a team is getting for $13MM.

I think I read it’s equivalent to 20M
