Congrats on the awesome piece of metal. I'm very jealous of this one. Very very very jealous.

I can recall a few horror stories, but for the most part I consider my purchases good deals.

I don...From what I hear he was a great teammate. I don't know him so my perception is only based from watching him pitch. If you remember he didn't leave on the greatest of terms because he thought he should have pitched the last playoff game in 2013 but Cole got the start. He said he wanted to pitch closer to home, but he ended up taking more money to only get a little closer (Philly). <br /><br />The other thing that bothered me was him getting mad at the shifting of the infielders. It wasn't until he was in Philly that he realized how much the shifting helped rather than hurt. I guess age and experience makes us wiser. He just could have handled it better......at least the perception in the media and during the games could have been better.BobWalkthePlankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16011292576523365641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7504646615318477533.post-25681250821483295282015-11-18T07:55:43.939-05:002015-11-18T07:55:43.939-05:00It is a cool Pirate card and that was the overridi...It is a cool Pirate card and that was the overriding factor. Burnett has had a nice long career. It was cool to see him make the team eventhough he didn't get to play. If he hadn't made the All Star team I'm pretty sure he would have went down as the highest career earning player ever to not make an ASG.
