you are rediculously mistaken. Have you read moneyball?? the guy is a baseball genious. his payroll is 40k and he gets 97 wins... explain that. and its not only SP, it's OBP, its balls in play per balls hit, it's obscure stats no one has ever bothered to look at before.
Also, Bradford is in fact a stud. He is an awesome specialist, and thats exactly his role. So what if lefties smack him? Having bradford in our 'pen right now would be a helluvan upgrade over say shingo or wunsch or jackson...
just read the book, look at his stats. Dont pass judgements about people or things before you know the whole story.
