Haha...that ain't gonna do shit. The Gaymen are still the wackest team in the NL West along with Colorado.
126 million for Zito??? get the fuck outta here with that shit, maybe 3 years back or something but now? no way
Barry Zito isn't an ace, Matt Cain on the other hand can be one. The NL West is still a battle between the Diamondbacks, Dodgers, and Padres.

How do you figure?Look at the Giants lineup and staff people, saying they wont compete is ludacris they competed last year with less...Watch Cain win 20 games this year too!

Barry Zito hasn't been an ace for about three years now, the evidence is there. The team's centerpiece is older and he obviously is going to be weaker. Rich Aurilia and Dave Roberts will not repeat last year's performances, and Alou's bat will be missed.
Amazing move for the GMEN!! With our rotation now we are easily the best team in the division no question about it!! Cain, Zito, Lowry, Morris, and Jonathon Sanchez LOL the Dodgers dont have a chance. And Tommy you are the homie but you are wrong saying this is a horrible move, this is a great move!! GO GIANTS!!! FUCK THE LA BUMS!!!!
hahaha*Note - This comming from a HUGE barry zito fan$126 mil is WAYYYYYY too much for him.He has never been injured and is great for innings, he will always be there. But he has been very inconsistent for the past few years. Barry Zito is not an Ace. He wasn't even the A's ace the last couple of years. He walks a shitload of batters. He is good, really good, but definately not worth that money. Its a very sad day indeed to see barry go over to the gay ass giants, sorry barry but you will never win a WS over there. I wish he would have gone to the mets. And spice girl, once again when it comes to sports you are wrong. This is not a great move. Its always a good move to pick up a pitcher like Zito, but not at that price. Also Barry had the great oakland colesium which helped him tremendously with the deep fence and all the extra foul territory, good luck in SF. My prediction for 2007: Once again the A's have a better record than the Giants, A's make the playoff's Giants don't. But hell I can't blame barry, I sure as hell wouldn't turn down that money.
Keep in mind he has over a 4 ERA over the past three seasons. And that was in a pitchers park with a great defense behind him. That is not good for a guy making $18mil per year over the next 7 years. With that said, he is durable and young, so it might end up working out. But if you're gonna pay a guy a top-10 MLB salary, I would assume you'd get more production than that. The Giants now decide they want to spend some real cash? Maybe they should have done it when Bonds was in his prime. They could have got the big bat they always needed. Zito saved their off-season from being a complete mess (assuming he is healthy during a great majority of those seven years). They completely screwed up by not trying 100% to sign Soriano. He is MUCH more valuable than Zito. And then they go out and do the typical Giants shit and add old-ass players (Aurilia, Klesko, Dave Roberts). Sabean is off his rocker. Thank god for Giants fans the division sucks balls
True TheMoSav his career era is 3.55 but like i said in a pitchers park with an awesome defense behind him in oakland
