Giant Anger

John Perricone is not at all happy with the Giants off season.

Oh, and in one of the press releases I read, Sabean is quoted as saying that the Giants saved a million dollars a season on the Worrell deal by letting him go. Yeah, good, solid logic there. Two seasons of almost 70 blown saves for a team trying to get the last possible greatness out of Bonds to save $2 million. Throw a million dollars away to downgrade your relievers, throw $18 million dollars at an aging, declining and soon to be out of baseball Kirk Reuter, throw away $5 million dollars on Neifi Perez, throw away two seasons to save $2 million dollars on Tim Worrell, and then tell us you can't afford to sign real players and real pitchers 'cause your mortgage payments are too high, something we know isn't true, by the way.

That's called lying to your constituency, or in the case of the Giants, your clientele. Generally, not good for business. Ready to pony up the cash for 2006 season tickets yet?
