I've never been huge on Gray. I might get proven wrong, but I just don't think he is that special.

I get that his contract is in fact special. I'm glad the Cubs reached for Quintana though.

The only thing that makes me feel a little better about this, is Oakland is atrocious defensively and the yanks are pretty solid. That's pretty important for a ground ball pitcher.

 

[NewYorkKnight]

I don't really know how to feel.


Only time will tell what happens
