3 years and 40 mil is correct and that's more than fair.
And you're right, if he walks, we use the money elsewhere.
One possibility is signing Mags to a long-term deal.
You could also try to lock Buehrle up beyond the three more seasons we have him.
If maggs goes, all hell will break loose. This man is the s***.
As much as trading Maggs at times makes sense, I still dont see it happining. I think there is to big of a fan base here with him, and I dont think the Sox are a team looked at as trading marquee players away for the possible future. I think were more of a middle of a pack team as we stand, and wont deal like that.
I couldn't see us getting much for him. Hes one of the top 10 position palyers in the bigs, yet he gets no respect. The trades people suggested are not exciting me at all. Hes a very young siperstar, and I want a superstar in return, a 5 tool player.
