I think this is around what was expected for Willis, the real question is how much will Miggy make, on the Herald (I think) he has already been offered the same amount, which is more than I would have originally thought. Actually the amount that has surfaced with Cabs is 5.5 million, I am sure that is why they are still talking Cabrera was offered the same amount as DTrain ($6.45 mil). He's still thinking about it... http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/sport...ll/16468373.htm

Whenever a team and a player can avoid a nasty fight, that's always a good thing. You think they would have mentioned anything about the arrest during his arby hearing?? lol!

If you listed Sammy there, you gotta post Barry. He may not get there this year, but he'll hit more homers than Sammy.

Yes, he's been pitching in the playoffs (round robin format). His stats: 4 games, 0-0, 4.1 IP, 6 H, 3 R (0 ER), 0 BB, 2 Ks, Opponent BA is .300 I'd give him a look in ST.

my first thought on seeing the subtitle "Hats for bats...keep bats warm" Heck yea!!! JOBU!!! That's what the Fish need :cool

Oh Yeeaaaaaa!!!! That was awesome!!!!

Juan Rivera of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim broke his leg while playing winter ball in Venezuela. All I can say is this: Miggy please be careful. We don't need any freak accident like this happen!

Hanley played his first game last night with the Licey Tigers of the Dominican Winter League. He went 1 for 5 last night with a walk. He's in the lineup tonight again, batting third.

And that, kids, is what alcohol does to you. Wow, I've never been so shocked to hear about a player being arrested. Of all people, the last person you would think of would be D-Train. I'm sure he's very shameful about it. Urinating on the street? Come on! I wonder how he'll react with the media regarding his arrest.

lol, Ro had finals... so we could do anything... When i said wednesday he figured he was gonna be as lazy as i am about finals and not study, i thought wrong... Look for the topic to go up any day now, part 2 this weekend It'll be a nice Xmas present then

4 years, $38 million. Not bad at all. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=ap-t...p&type=lgns Breakdown: 2007: $4.5 million, 2008: $8.5 million, 2009 & 2010: $12.5 million If Jeremy stays healthy, he's still a relative bargain at the end of the contract, considering some of the other heavily backloaded contracts we've seen signed this offseason.

Let's put it this way: Cabrera won't be a career Marlin. No, I agree with you. I'm just wondering what kind of pay day he's going to bring down when he's a FA. He's GOT to eclipse Wells's contract for sure.

I have also seen it a few times. Excellent work guys!! I've also been showing it around to co-workers who are also Marlin fans. Can't wait for the next parts to be released!!!!!!!!

Somewhere in Venezuela, Miguel Cabrera's mouth is watering.... This contract that Wells just signed is the richest for a player with less than six years of service time. How much do you think Cabrera would get??????

If his current performance in Venezuela holds any value, he seems to be out of whatever funk he was in for 2006. AVG G AB R H TB 2B 3B HR RBI BB K SAC SB SLG% OBP% .394 23 94 17 37 57 7 2 3 18 5 11 3 1 .606 .420 I'll take these stats and offer at least an invitation to ST.

Yeah, I would really like to see Kemp play Center for us. That guys stats are really good. What would it take to get him? The Marlins have stressed that they do not want to give up pitching. They will give up pitching. Just preferrably not their current starting pitching. Maybe a combination of Pinto, Petit, Garcia, or Mitre would net us a CF. The Marlins have also shown interest, although not actively shopping, in moving Andino as part of a deal, since he's blocked by Hanley at SS.

The deal is now a five year deal. Financial terms were not yet available... http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2689724

He's set to be traded to the White Sox in exchange for Jon Garland and Taylor Buchholz. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/4385643.html

Jon Garland is seems headed to the Astros in exchange for Willy Taveras and Taylor Buchholz. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/4385643.html

intresting here the Cubs and Tim Wilken drop the biggest name in the Rule 5 in years, selecting Josh Hamilton off the Devil Rays' roster. Hamilton, of course, was the No. 1 overall pick in the 1999 draft but has battled injuries and drug problems since 2001, his only full season in the minors. Cubs are trading Hamilton to the Reds for cash. http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/prosp...ews/262979.html

WOW Josh Hamilton....haven't heard his name in a LOOOONG TIME! I do remember him leaving the Rays from one day to the next, ala Pokey Reese. Later it was known he didn't have his head on straight. This was the Josh draft - Josh Hamilton #1 overall, Josh Beckett #2.

If this is true, Bavasi and the M's get gang bang. OK, where's the vaseline??? :blink: The only thing that is holding up the LaRoche/Gonzalez deal are the Braves wanting to see medical records. The Braves' back end of the bullpen will be SOLID. Here is the link to the LaRoche/Gonzalez deal: http://postgazette.com/pg/06340/744098-100.stm

You're right....eventually, that's what I'd like it to be - hopefully May 2007
