November 5, 200322 yr it is the reason why teams are not paying outrageous salaries anymore. WHAT? Have you gone out of your mind? Salaries are more outrageous and out of control now than ever. Remember A-Rod??? Hello! Aside from that, Pudge is not stupid. 50 M may be what his agent will be asking for, but they will end up accepting the highest offer, even if is not for 50 M... I hate admitting that we may lose Pudge. I still hope we get to sign him, but things are not looking good. :banghead A-Rod was how many years ago? They've backed off a bit since then.

November 5, 200322 yr The days of A-ROD type contracts are long over. . . You may be right... However, there are other contracts that are still exorbitant and out of a small budget team. Got to admit that!
November 5, 200322 yr Well my question is who is dumb enough to make a 5 year commitment at 10 million dollars a year to a 31 year old catcher who could break down at any moment?
