February 7, 200719 yr Glad to see they just didn't settle for arbitration. The Reds would have lowballed him, causing some tension, Harang then wins the CYyoung and leaves for NY or Boston. Biggest Reds deal in quite some time.

February 7, 200719 yr I love that we have him back but this doesn't mean much Managment wise IMO. This was a no brainer move. A pitcher like this on the FA market would have gotten 14Mil a year or more.
