As an A's fan, I'm sorry to see Barry go, but we all knew it was 100% going to happen. I think the giants will be disappointed with the return on this investment. For the last 3 years Barry has been a fairly good (nowhere approaching great) pitcher. You have to keep in mind that Oakland Coliseum is one of the best pitcher's parks in baseball, so it makes his numbers look better than they reallly are. So they're getting a solid and very durabale starter who will be 35ish at the end of the deal for HUGE money. I think they'll regret this signing.
