Ramp Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 Lowell may be traded. but it aint written in stone nice to see you coming over to the sunny side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eadearmas Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 Well, isn't that being cynical... :whistle This is just for fun. No sense in either giving up on our opinions or offending anybody else by the use of it (not that you offended anyone, just an example). The best we can do is argue in peace. Ah... and is not in Byscaine where they are building their new 600 million retractable-roof stadium, is actually in Bicenntenial Park. Did I mention it has computerized vents to control the temperature? [just adding another touch of cynism] :w00t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Card Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 It's no use, I give up. You should have stopped there. This is a very stubborn board, and you usually won't win when the majority of it is against you. "There's no place like home, There's no place like home, There's no place like home". Damn straight.

Fish Fillet Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 Naw, I enjoy the dookie out of the disagreements. Heck, if we all thought alike it'd be no fun. I'll just take solace in the fact that I know everyone who disagrees with me about anything on this board is wrong. It ain't easy being perfect.

Wild Card Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 PS: What number do you think the Yankees will give Lowell? They won't be able to, because he will have already signed the Marlins 5-year $35 Million deal with a $5 Million incentives package...

eadearmas Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 PS: What number do you think the Yankees will give Lowell? 12 million a year... plus incentives for a 5-year contract: totaling 65 to 68 million !!! :w00t I guess if I keep being cynical about it the reality of losing Lowell might not hit me that hard after all... :banghead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 I guess if I keep being cynical about it the reality of losing Lowell might not hit me that hard after all... :banghead I still realize we could very possibly lose him, but I stay as optimistic as possible. Even if we lose him to the Cubbies, we will still get a great package of pitching for him, so... :banghead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eadearmas Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 I am not that happy about getting another round of prospects to be developed for some other team. It is the same thing every time: we get a prospect, we develop prospect, prospect becomes a start, former prospect gets too expensive, some other team gets a World Series ring but us.

Kind of like hitting yourself in the temple with a hammer over and over again and then wondering why your head is split open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DurableTear Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 At this pace.. Lowell is a goner... but you know that you'll be able to acquire some good talent for him... REAL FISH fans... will not jump on the wagon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotcorner Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 Let me repeat myself again: SHOW ME THE ARTICLE WHERE LOWELL SAYS HE WANTS TO MAKE 25% OF THE CURRENT PAYROLL. SHOW ME WHERE HE SAYS ANYTHING ABOUT THE KIND OF MONEY/DEAL HE WOULD BE INTERESTED IN FOR THAT MATTER??? Something else, Lowell is not Floyd. So, keep up with the facts people... Eadearmas, I'm not speaking for Lowell. If he could be signed to a long-term affordable contract here, you can be sure I'll be dancing in the streets, okay? We're just speculating here, don't get too excited. And I agree that he's not Cliff Floyd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild Card Posted June 4, 2003 Share Posted June 4, 2003 you mean jump off the wagon? He means on. As in, they won't love the fact that Lowell is traded. They won't deem it acceptible. OK, well that's what I thought he meant... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
