Darren Dreifort: Calls it Quits
Dreifort announced his retirement, the Associated Press reports. He's set to have arthroscopic surgery on his knee in a few weeks - his 16th surgery since his playing career began.
ANALYSIS
Dreifort's five-year, $55 million contract stands as the primary example of the risk of signing promising pitchers to long-term deals without a proven track record. Still, he was a dominant pitcher in the few months of his career when he was fully healthy.

If you needed an example of why A.J. Burnett's five-year, $55 million deal is a bad idea, look no further than Dreifort's history with the Dodgers. Sure, he's an extreme example, but the principle remains the same - counting on any pitcher, let alone with an extensive injury history, to stay healthy over the course of a five-year contract is just asking for trouble. Dreifort managed only 205.2 innings over his five-year deal, one that is finally off the books for the Dodgers in 2006.
