It is hilarious how people get so defensive when you say that the Jays were completely moronic to make that trade for Dickey because he simply isn't the caliber pitcher people think he is.

Yeah, he converted to the knuckleball in 2006. Apparently he's supposed to be an expert at pitching it immediately and it doesn't take time to learn the craft.
I love how you just brush off a couple years of success with the Mets - three years of 2.84, 3.28, and 2.73 ERAs. Find me the list of guys with a combined ERA better in the past 3 years.
It's hilarious that people act moronic and call guys busts when it's still April - David Price and his 5.21 ERA was a complete fluke last year too, right?
