They value the prospects so much, that's fine. Just don't go around disrespecting your star players. Eddy/Bautista with contracts, Tulo/Martin with poor play that was leaked to the media.
When could they have had Dickey for 8-10 mill? He's been under contract since the trade? You know R.A. Dickey believes in himself and will want to hit the market, so why not just slap the QO on him?
I was actually thinking about getting in on Davis at the last moment but my roster couldn't handle it. I'll throw out Sam Dyson for anyone looking for some reliable saves.
