Free agency is bad

In my ongoing effort to push the idea that free agency promotes bad logic, here are some past free agent classes and the horror stories that accompany them.

First off though, here is another one of the reasons that free agency is often a failure for most teams. Players who become free agents after a great season are treated as though they are great. But as long as the universe has existed, I’m pretty sure nature has always had peaks and valleys. Paying players based on their peaks is completely backwards logic but it is how sports, and I think most industries, operate.
