So giving up the $60m bonus baby in Ribic was hard for me to do. But...the logic here was, Rugama is a rare catching talent in this league and it's a lot harder to find catchers than it is to find pitchers, Ribic wasn't an ace and while he's only 19 and has a ton of pitches...I felt like this was a situation where Rugama could walk into the door on Day One and help us in a critical position.

So I dunno, we'll see how this one pans out over time if Ribic picks up a for Charlie Taylors in the future but...for right now, I'm comfortable with this one.
