Then you dump Garza and now we do not have the best rotation in the east. Price is a legit number 1, we do not have a number 2, and then Shields, Helickson, Nieman, or Davis are legit 3/4. But no bullpen at all.
Even after losing all those guys, the money still doesn't add up to what Crawford got in Boston. Tying up those kind of funds just doesn't make sense for the Rays anyways.

And who has a better rotation in the AL East than TB? The Yankees sure don't, Toronto no, Baltimore definitely not, maybe Boston is the closest but i'd still give the edge to TB. Bullpen is another story, but even without Garza I still think they have one of the strongest staffs around.
