June 13, 200521 yr http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2084012 WTF? 40 million over 5yrs! Thats ridiculous! Does anyone here think he is worht that kinda money? WHY?
June 13, 200521 yr The price of resigning Alex Gonzalez just went up. :plain Phillies were just robbed.
June 13, 200521 yr He isn't worth that kind of money, but the price of Alex didn't change. Rollins was viewed as more of a speed kind of player anyway, Gonzalez is here as long as management wants him...
June 13, 200521 yr That's a lot for a relatively mediocre player. 807716[/snapback] I wouldn't say mediocre. He is a slightly above average player due to being a great defensive SS, with speed and some power. But no way in hell he deserves this type of contract, however he has youth on his side.
June 13, 200521 yr The price of resigning Alex Gonzalez just went up. :plain 807689[/snapback] Unfortunately. Despite it being a contract year, Alex is still siginifigantly flying under the radar, as opposed to Burnett.
June 13, 200521 yr I'm really happy he's in Philly for the next 5 years. He's a strong clubhouse guy, he's really well-liked in Philly, and he has a great glove. With that said, they still overpaid by leaps and bounds.
