Any interest in a Koji reunion? (Boston 2/$18M)

This is a bad decision by the Red Sox....which makes me happy.

I like Koji, but the guy is 39 years old and isn't as dominant as he once was. He may still be good, or he could fall off like some other closers, but I don't see him being worth 18 million the next two years!

MLBTR said 11 million for a one year deal, which I thought was too much.

Boston is crazy, the way they spend money like the Yankees.

I see them releasing him sometime late next season.

Would feel bad to see that but very possible.

I won't feel bad. He would have played until he was 40, excelled in two countries and leagues, won a championship and made a large sum of money.

You would like to think, that Boston pitches him more efficiently, so they don't burn him out by August.

I would never give them that much credit on their smarts. They'll ride him like a horse till he doesn't work out, and then dump him like change falling out of a hole in your pocket.

If it were burn out. He may have just gotten old.

And then the Yankees will give him a two week flier.

Boston's ownership no longer wants to risk big money on long term contracts. They did keep Pedroia but not at a crazy price. I think we will continue to see them make moves like this, risking money but on short term deals.

That's too much money for Koji and I love Koji.
