That's amazing

It shows you how bad those medical reports must be. Becuase he could not find a single team in baseball willing to give him a legitimate shot at a full-time spot in the rotation.

I don't think...

those medical reports are bad. I think Boston is just taking a low risk shot. It's just a minor league deal, which tells you no other team would give him a guarantee because of those injuries.
