So says the man who has spent heavily on protected pitching.
While I agree that the very top starting pitchers have all been retained, it looks to me like there's a reasonably deep pool of pitchers at the next tier. It's the offense where I think things are likely to get more interesting. Factoring in that: (i) most teams already have at least one top starting pitcher retained; and (ii) the historical hesitancy of this league to bid up pitchers, I expect the inflation factor on hitting to be quite high and the inflation factor on pitching to be relatively low. I figure Pujols and Fielder go for $50+.

All well and good if it weren't for the fact that there needs to be non-retained players to spend the money on. That's going to be especially challenging for those on the hunt for starting pitchers.
