that is slightly serious, though admittedly i didn't even bother checking mccann's contract details either
No point in trading for McCann unless you're going to extend him. And it won't be easy to extend McCann considering he's set to be the top FA catcher on the market next season. Personally, I'd love to get him for next year, but it's going to cost them.
I also don't know about JPA "refusing" to be anything. The problem with him is that he just isn't that good. But he's not going to be going anywhere for the time being, not when his replacements consist of guys like Thole, Blanco, and Nickeas.
