Is Anibal Sanchez Worth the Ace-Like Contract?

Via FootBasket  |  November 20, 2012
Let’s get something straight— Anibal Sanchez is not quite an ace. He is a great middle-of-the-rotation arm until he proves otherwise, but with that said, he is still worth ace-esque money. And ace-esque money is what suitors will seemingly be willing to pay him this off-season. Those handful of suitors are a smart bunch. The longtime Miami Marlins player and stellar in-season...
