October 29, 200322 yr Author use logic and then answer your own question After the season he had, I would say that you're implying it's too little.
October 29, 200322 yr you have to be s***ting me in this new economic environment, he would be lucky to get half of that
October 29, 200322 yr Author you have to be s***ting me in this new economic environment, he would be lucky to get half of that OK. I'll subtract $1.5 Mill from his price right now.
October 29, 200322 yr how about you subtract $3mil? he will be one of the cheaper free agents, AS ALWAYS, because no one thinks he has anything left
October 29, 200322 yr Author how about you subtract $3mil? he will be one of the cheaper free agents, AS ALWAYS, because no one thinks he has anything left I''ll make it $2 Mill just to be safe.
October 29, 200322 yr Author now with that $2mil, go for someone younger, cheaper, and with better D Like? Jose Guillen (if he doesn;t cost as much as I'm assuming he will)?
October 29, 200322 yr Author thats a start now cut "the shooter" me no likey C'mon now. What's wrong with Beck?
October 29, 200322 yr Author Want a good setup man? How about Curtis Leskanic? Older, has health issues, and we have a guy named Chad Fox. Not to mention his price tag.
October 29, 200322 yr Author now with that $2mil, go for someone younger, cheaper, and with better D Or, with that $2 Million, you re-sign Urbina instead of Looper. *Updates roster*
October 29, 200322 yr I hate Burnett out the bullpen. He has starter stuff, wants starter money, and has already sohwn he is a starter. If Beckett got injured and was out for a year would you want him returning in the bullpen? Hell no. Either let Burnett go or let a SP we already have go.
October 29, 200322 yr sanders made only 1 mill comming off a WS team in 2002 with like 27 homers. what make u think hes going to get a raise for getting older?
October 29, 200322 yr Either let Burnett go not picking on you... but these words must never be spoken/written ever again
October 29, 200322 yr let burnett go? 2.5 mill for an ace and we just let him go? not going to happen. and the other gms that say beinfst will release him just want burnett for themself
