I would love to see Billy re-sign Zito but I don't think it's going to happen. I think he's going to let Zito walk and I do think that he'll end up in New York. Either the Mets or the Yankees. And if not there, maybe Boston or Philly?

I would love to see Billy do it to. I just can't see it getting done. The A's owner all but said last week that they are going to make no attempt to resign Zito but every attempt to resign Frank Thomas. Starting pitching is an area of strength for the A's. I think Shane Komine ("The Hawaiian Punch-Out") will end up as the fifth starter on next year's team and Harden, Haren, Blanton, and Loaiza will all move up a notch. I see the A's keeping Brad Halsey in the pen and using Jason Windsor/Kirk Saarloos as trade bait.
Zito is going into to spark a bidding war. Scott Boras has to be thrilled that the Mets, Yanks, and Red Sox all need starters. I can see Zito getting wildly overpaid when it's all said and done. I'd bet the Mets. If the money is close to the same, Rick Peterson is there and him and Zito are boys.
