They are up against the luxury tax which they are refusing to go over. Unless Rodriquez's contract gets voided, they don't have money to spend for years.

 

Oh, well that's different from an actual hard cap. They can spend as much money as they want, they're just choosing not to spend that much.

Hopefully his horrible pizza dies with him.

 

I found a thread full of fail, and then I found this.

 

Disappointed, if nothing else.

 

I do not care if buying Little Caesar's pays for Detroit's roster. That is the best $5 pizza money can buy, and it is delicious.

 

Oh, and Justin Verlander? Yankees? No.

The deal may now be in jeopardy, per Rotoworld:

 

ESPN's Buster Olney reports that concern over Felix Hernandez's pitching elbow might affect the contract extension he agreed to last week.

Well, that certainly came out of nowhere. It was reported last week that King Felix and the Mariners had a deal in place that would pay him a total of $175 million over the next seven seasons, but evidently a physical he took raised a red flag about an elbow issue. It's not clear at this point whether the extension will be reworked or scrapped altogether, nor is it clear whether the ailment might be serious enough to affect his availability for the start of the season.
