I like the deal as much as anyone. I honestly think Stewart will be a 3rd starter, and he has a very good chance IMO, of reaching that potential, but Rasmus has star potential and more importantly, his rights are locked up. What I don't understand is how Rasmus wasn't pawned to other teams? I know AA is very quiet with his dealings, but other teams should have been given a heads up so they could potentially pony up more, and it appears that wasn't done as word never leaked out at all about him being on the block for this price.
