Get ready for the second coming of Kaz Matsui. Kaz Matsui? Yeah, the guy the Mets blew $20 million for a 3 yr deal on but then eventually dumped because they were so sick of his futility. Knowing his production, even Richard Prior in Brewster's Millions would not have paid that contract. So before you bust out some tiny purple pills to deal with that uneasy feeling you get when you hear his name, you might want to recognize that this could be a nice little opportunity for your MLB fantasy league.
Recognizing that one team's trash just might be another's treasure, the Rockies signed Kaz Matsui to a one year deal. The Colorado air can perform alchemy on a players career (See Dante Bichette, Vinny Castilla, etc.) and Rockies management thinks they can do it again with Matsui. During his stint with the Rockies, Matsui batted .345 with 19 RBI in 32 games. During those 32 games he batted .281 on the road and had 11 RBI away from Coors. May be he actually learned something while in the minors.

One of the rules Brewster had to abide by was that he couldn't give his money away to charity...like the Mets did with Kaz.
