Well it's not so obvious. I understood it to work out at 18 over 5...but anyways.

I don't know a lot about other teams,but last night he acted as though he wants to stay.

It's funny how the money is relative to where you want to be. Guess I was wondering if he really wanted out based on uncertainties about...well...if they will be any good or not or if he was just pulling a Thome.

I think he has " they'll have to tear this uniform off me" written all over him.

Well I guess not!




In any case...he's gone.They better not go for young talent in return because if they keep Wedge those guys won't see a ml field for 5 years.

This period in my life is now known as "The Indian Years"..

As I said earlier, what else can they get? As I think Horse said, and you, when everyone knows your hand, what can you get in return? Captain Obvious, but a March trade would have realized an immediate return

That may be a good general rule of thumb...but it isn't cast in stone.

For instance...Texas has a plethora of hitting....and a serious lack of pitching.
