Red Sox Pay $51 Million, Just For The Right To Negotiate With Japanese Ace
This is very old to anyone who follows sports, but there you go. NYT link. $51 million not to actually sign the guy, but just for the rights to talk to the guy about maybe signing him.
Industry insiders say that an actual deal would run in the "several bazillions."
In related news, a new group blog just offered me "three buck, sixteen cent" to discuss my joining them.
