I will really be mad if we got Chavez's overpaid ass and traded BMac for him.
Do any of you focking realize Chavez is making money equivalent to what New York is paying ARod (since Rangers are paying a lot of ARod's salary still) and what St Louis is paying Pujols?
Why the fock would a team like ours that is fiscally constrained want to trade for such a ridiculous contract when the guy under question is focking sucking this year?
Do you all realize Beane is under more pressure to improve his team than Kenny is? So play the leverage game and fock Beane when you can.
What of Beane knows Chavez was on the juice previously and hence is dying to let him go to a sucker soon? It is possible that Chavez could have been influenced by Giambi (team mates always pick up stuff from other team mates)
When has Chavez's overpaid ass EVER won anything?
Yes, you buy low, sell high. But not if that guy will be the highest paid player on your team.
If we are willing to pay that ridiculous contract that Chavez is signed to, we should instead have traded Paulie in the off season and signed Delgado instead. A far better player that would be a monster in our home park.
wow... that was weird...
pujols is getting paid what he is because he's still under his 6 year initial contract. and calling him an overpaid ass just... i dont know... seems kind of stupid
