Non-Sharks Bay Area Sports Thread XXVIII

I expect that signing to work out as well as Steve Carlton, Orel Hershiser, and Randy Johnson did for the Giants.

Hershiser was fine - 91 ERA+ in 202 innings. He was below average but hardly a weak spot on the team (really, the weak spot was that Hershiser, Mark Gardner, and Kirk Reuter were the three best starters on the team).

Johnson was pretty meh, but whatever. Carlton was legitimately bad.

Basically, this is a risk-free move that maybe works out, or maybe we release Verlander in May. Either way, whatever, we got another starter (remember, if you have eight starters, you have four starters).

As I watch the end of the Vikings-Rams game, I find myself thinking back to the year 1987 and while Minnesota vs. Buffalo would have been a perfectly acceptable Super Bowl for me (someone would break their streak), I also find myself feeling like a long-term debt has been paid.
