Guest Moneyball Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 The price of resigning Alex Gonzalez just went up. :plain Phillies were just robbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarlinsContinueTo ShowDomi Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 That's a lot for a relatively mediocre player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSwift25 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshFish Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 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.

QuickGold Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rune Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
