Some analysis of the true value of Alex Rios. Is he and his 62 million dollar contract sunk costs, like Vernon Wells, or is he a salvageable asset?

My god

I can’t believe people are writing Rios off.
I hope the Mets are the ones who’ve claimed him…I’m confident he can still outperform his contract.

This makes no sense

They decide to not get rid of Halladay and his expensive contact when his value is at his highest, they trade Rolen and his big contract and ptu Rios on waivers. Are the rebuilding or not!??!?!

Man, with this outfield, need to get rid of that Rasmus guy. :)
