Thank You Buster Olney
Buster Olney has given the Baltimore Orioles or any ill-minded team a great idea. Say you don't want a rival to sign ace-in-waiting Daisuke Matsuzaka. All you have to do is bid some obscene amount of money to get exclusive negotiating rights, make a low-ball offer that's sure to be rejected, and send Matsuzaka back to Japan out of the harmful clutches of your rival. Why wouldn't you do this if you were the Baltimore Orioles?
