And the Phillies miss out on yet another free agent bat

Should I be upset that besides the Thome offseason, they never shell out for top-tier FAs, or should I be proud of them for not giving out this kind of ridiculous contract?

Be proud.

Maybe he can afford a personal trainer now. Or at least not bother with the all you can eat buffet.

Odds of Carlos Lee opening a local Houston steakhouse after retirement: 4-1

Are some of you guys really not understanding that the baseball economy has changed? Or, is the only response you're capable of "that's too much to pay for that player"?

Perhaps, at some point, the skeptics should tell who the think were the good free agent signings. ESPN.com's free agent tracker provides a good list.

MLB teams can't overpay every free agent.
