Love Price though, feel bad for him that he's having all of those struggles.
Part of it is due to Scott Boras being his agent I think and them missing out on last year's crop of big names to grab an Ace. Also didn't help how bad last year's rotation for starters were.

MLB is a lot similar to the NBA in regards to no salary cap or luxury tax not being a real determinant for bigger and attractive market teams. Took until very recently for the Yankees to feel the real effects of the luxury tax.
