Pineiro Gets Two Year Deal

According to FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal, Joel Pineiro's two-year deal with the Cardinals is worth $13 million.
Amazing what two months of quality pitching can do for a free agent these days. Pineiro hasn't had a quality year since 2003, and prior to August and September, he hadn't even had a solid run of starts since May and June of 2004. If the Cardinals actually think they know what they're getting here, they're crazy. It still might work out, but it's scary to think that this is all that $13 million buys. Kyle Lohse is drooling in anticipation of the winter meetings.

Who in the hell is acting as GM in St. Louis? This is a horrible deal and can't believe they did this. $6.5 million per year for a terrible #5 starter is just dumb. The Cards need to get a real GM if more of these deals are going to happen.

He did a nice job for the Cardinals after they signed him.

I could shit in my hand and use that as a baseball and outdo Pineiro.
