no 1st rounder for zito, right?
because the giants had one of the 15 worst records in baseball last year, they keep their #1, right? we get a sandwich + the giants 2nd round pick, correct? if that's true...well, that blows. i never liked that rule. considering the parity in the middle of MLB (the top teams usually stay the same), there isn't a hell of a lot of difference between having the 10th worst record and the 17th worst record. i understand protecting the absolute worst teams - limiting it to the 5 worst teams makes sense. oh well, at least the giants 2nd round pick will be a high one.

Life isn't fair
He signed Bonds, insuring sold-out crowds for at least half the season.
And he signed Barry Zito.

A's get...
Two Supp. 1st round picks (#35-ish and one in the mid-50's).
Giants' 2nd round pick (low-70's) and their own 2nd round pick (mid-80's).
Nothing for Payton. (No Arby offer, remember?)
