J.P. Ricciardi = worst GM in the history of baseball

Take a look at this Sports Illustrated article.

Basically it's an article that talks about the worst contracts in baseball. What it really explains is why the Blue Jays have been so bad for the past 7 years or so since J.P. Ricciardi became our GM back in 2002.

I love the last few sentences:
(talking about Vernon Wells' ridiculous 7-year, $126 million contract, the worst contract ever)

This deal, to be honest, is not the sort of thing that leads to a general manager getting fired. It's the sort of thing that leads to entire villages getting pillaged. And that's what I mean about Ricciardi. I mean, this contract alone should be enough to put him in the Bad Contract Hall of Fame. But when you look over the whole body of work...he IS the Bad Contract Hall of Fame.

In fact, we should just start referring to bad baseball contracts as "Ricciardis".
