October 3, 200422 yr beltre yea,i kow the dodgers woyuld have to lose their mind and then we'd out bid whoever else wnats him shut up
October 3, 200422 yr Unfortunetly. Can we also post news about whose options might not be picked up? Or arbitration-eligible layers that will be let go?
October 3, 200422 yr I say the fish go after Delgado... [/crazy] 580543[/snapback] y not? 580546[/snapback] Not enough dinero...

October 3, 200422 yr Palmeiro He still has some pop left, a great verteran leader, O's won't pick up his option for his next season so he will become a FA He could sign for peanuts...market isn't crazy for him right now, he just doesn't want to throw it in just yet He is better than Conine and more affordable, he'd be a great draw...it'd be an event to have him on the team when he retires following next season more likely Plus we can do that cool HR tracking thing as he climbs his way up :cool
October 4, 200422 yr Matt Clement may be the biggest "value" free-agent available. Pavano, El Duque, Pedro, Benson. They're all going to be going after the big money, Clement may end up being a $15 million for 3 years kind of guy and that may be the steal of the offseason.
October 4, 200422 yr Author Isn't Tony Bautista an FA? 580861[/snapback] I'd love to get Tony Bautista, but where would he play? It wouldn't really work unless by chance the stadium deal fell through and (god forbid) Lowell didn't pick up his option for next year. Mabye he could play 1st, and Conine could just go back to playing LF with Cabs in RF.
October 4, 200422 yr Tony Batista is terrible. The only thing he is good for is the occasional home run.
October 4, 200422 yr I would look at these players if I were the Marlins, Rafael Palmeiro, Pedro Martinez to replace Carl Pavano, Juan Gonzalez to replace Encar, and Carlos Delgado.
October 4, 200422 yr I would look at these players if I were the Marlins, Rafael Palmeiro, Pedro Martinez to replace Carl Pavano, Juan Gonzalez to replace Encar, and Carlos Delgado. 581076[/snapback] Not bad.. Now why dont you lend the Marlins about $50 million and we'll get all 4 along with re-signing Carl Pavano.

I was just saying that those are the hottest players that are free agents, and I would really look to get one or two of them. If they were to get one player they should get Carlos Delgado, but if they want to get two players they should either get Palmeiro and Pedro, or Juan Gonzalez and Pedro, or Palmeiro and Gonzalez. That is what I meant.

October 4, 200422 yr for $1mil it couldnt hurt.... worst comes to worse he gets hurt and you play Aguila in RF... oh well, there goes the thinking outside the bun....
