Without a doubt, the sex appeal factor enters in.  IMHO that was the key to the Lee deal.  People were giddy over him, fortunately for us... compare Washburn.
Vargas' sex appeal is -10.  Folks will presumably take him as a schlub benefitting from Safeco.  Hence the Fister suggestion, where you can tantalize with upside (the velo uptick).  But yeah.

Have seen in several places, the claim that Bedard's 2010 is edited out, but that's just surfing the 'net.  If you're pretty sure it's included, that's type B definitely, right...
Reason I resist, is that Bedard is precisely the Stars & Scrubs factor that allows fungibility at lower roster slots, allows winning in the playoffs, etc.  As am sure you also recko'nize.
