The San Francisco Giants signed left handed relief pitcher Jeremy Affeldt to a 2 yr. deal worth $8 mil. Affeldt certainley could have done better from a team like the Tigers, whom are desperate for a closer. It is suprsing to see a pitcher with his stuff and his recent stats to take only 4 mil a year. It is hard to get a pitcher into that deal in today's market. Affeldt posted a 3.33 ERA last season with 80 K's in 78 IP. He will probably be setting up for closer Brian Wilson.
