Magglio doesn't go so quietly aft

Now for the real truth:

 

They wanted to ship Maggs off to Boston, Bring in Nomar and ship him off to LA for a propects.

 

Yeah that would make me feel wanted. :rolly

I don't know about you, but there was talk if Nomar was being traded to LA, the Dodgers were going to start by giving us Mota and Perez. Don't forget that the Red Sox were also going to ship Scott Williamson to us.

 

How does a rotation of

Buehrle

Loaiza

Garland

Perez

Schoeneweis

 

look like coming into season with a bullpen of

 

Koch

Williamson

Mota

Marte

Shingo

Politte

Cotts

 

:huh

Wrong. It has to be approved by MLB. Just read would ya.. I posted the damn link to the CBA.  :dips***

From that portion quoted above and the few articles I just read, it seems they could just fund the principle within two years. Taking say $20,000,000 if it is deferred for 20 years, the principle amount would be lower than if they deferred for 10 years. Hence the negotiations. It may only need $5,000,000 set aside instead of $10,000,000.

I guess I am. It depends how much is deferred 20 years, how much 10 years etc. It wouldn't surprise me at all if a portion was deferred 20 years. JR has the White Sox in good financial order. I don't believe they have much debt , if any. If Selig would approve such a contract, it would be with the White Sox.

Doesn't matter how good of friends Selig and JR are.. there are financial rules in place that have to be followed.

And what difference does this make? So the offer came with a "if approved by MLB". Aren't ALL contracts approved by MLB, not just the big ones?

 

I cannot think anyone here thinks Maggs is coming out ahead for turning down the last offer. He lost that gamble when he collided in the outfield. The Sox may have dodged a bullet on this one. I cannot see 5/70 looking like a bargain.

Steff, I have enough trouble writing properly...now you want me to read...Sheesh  :lol:  :D

Jason ... it is right "their" for you to see.

 

Some people think "there" not able to write, and if so they should make it "there" priority to get these things down pat. :lol:

 

Ok now, please correct the three mistakes made in those two sentences my good man.

It's my understanding.. :ph34r: ... that they (teams) have parameters they can work within. If they deviate much from that is when MLB takes a closer look. I'm sure they give them all the "stamp of approval".. but ones with a lot of red tape are looked over more closely.

 

Oh..

 

 

Just guessing here since I'm in no way, shape, or form involved with MLB other than being, evidentally, a stupid, blind, "something" smoking fan. :rolly

I'm golden grammatically when it comes to editing other peoples work, but my own, lets just say I'm prone to some minor grammar errors.

 

But thats well documented :D

The stuff you hear is much better then the crap like...let's trade Willie Harris for Tim Hudson.

 

Then sign Omar to a 3 yr 15M deal and jared Wright for 3yr/$12M and Drew to 5yr/$60M and b**** and moan when it doesn't happen.
