I don't think he qualifies as "very good"....The fact that his payroll is limitless offsets the fact that he went and spent like 100 million for Dice-K (way too much for the result)

Given the current market for pitchers (the one where Zito gets 7 years for $126 million, Zambrano gets $92 million for 5 years and GilgaMeche gets $55 million for 5), getting Dice-K 6 years at $100 million seems like fair market value.
