If you could get Edwin on a one year deal with a club option 2nd year, maybe, but otherwise no thanks...one more thing to remember, he offers the Tigers NO trade value at the break either...
I was going to say something similar. To me he's inconsistant. Seems like we already have a couple pitchers like that. I wouldn't want to tie up that much for two or more years. One? Maybe. But not rush into anything. There really isn't any hurry . See what happens now that Grienke is signed. Sanchez will be next to go.
