Fotop Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Just saw on the ESPN BottomLine, Jay Gibbons agreed to a one year deal with the Orioles. Sorry to dash all the dreams of the Gibbons lovers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelasDaddy0427 Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I can't believe the loser got like 2.5 mil... You'd have to pay me twice that to even let him stay on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Paying Timo 1 MIl was wise :rolly Thats sucks for us, he would have fit well on this team, a LHB with power in Coors lite, something this team needs.

CanOfCorn Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Yep seeing the guys we have compared to the guys we got... Man them Tigers and Indians are looking good.. Post all the players you would trade for or sign this offseason and let's see what the salary would be for this year. this should answer a lot of questions as to why the players you want to sign wouldn't work. s***, I'd love to sign Pavano, Clement and Perez...keep carlos...add Scott Podsednik...Edgar Renteria...etc. Your signings would push this team to $100 million and that ain't gonna happen. Hell, the Cubs aren't even there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, the Cubs aren't even there. Huh? Ok i will do this... Trade Pauly and Garland for AJ Burnett and Castillo.. 50/50 shot this trade goes through. Trade Lee for the Spod, Vizcaino and PTBNL Speaking of the PTBNL, ask what the A's are looking for, in regards to what the brewers are offering. Then trade Sweeney, Diaz,Harris and PTBNL for Hudson/Mulder, or if there are no players that the A's like pick what we like and trade another player.. Now our rotation and Bullpen are set 1. Hudson 2. Marky B 3. Garcia 4. Burnett 5. Contreas (who in the early months can be used out of the pen) Sign both Hudson and Burnett to 3 year extention deals We still are missing a piece in the bullpen and that piece is.. Steve Kline.. he inked for the same money that we handed out to DH, maybe offer a little more. and BAM there is our bullpen Bullpen Shingo Cotts marte Politle Adkins Grille Vizcaino Kline Now we still have to adress the missing 1b, RF Postion which I will get too when I get home..so far this is what we have left. C Davis/burke 1b Gload 2b Castillo ss Uribe 3b Crede RF Rowand CF Spod LF Everett DH Joe B/Escobar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Trade Pauly and Garland for AJ Burnett and Castillo.. 50/50 shot this trade goes through. Zero percent chance this goes through. Trade Lee for the Spod, Vizcaino and PTBNL Will you please stop being wishy washy about this deal. Speaking of the PTBNL, ask what the A's are looking for, in regards to what the brewers are offering. Then trade Sweeney, Diaz,Harris and PTBNL for Hudson/Mulder, or if there are no players that the A's like pick what we like and trade another player.. This is just silly. Sign both Hudson and Burnett to 3 year extention deals All this money comes from where exactly? We still are missing a piece in the bullpen and that piece is.. Steve Kline.. he inked for the same money that we handed out to DH, maybe offer a little more. and BAM there is our bullpen Pretty sure he wants to be a set-up man, which he would not be here. So have fun trying to convince him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthraxFan93 Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Zero percent chance this goes through. And Why not? It fills both team needs Will you please stop being wishy washy about this deal. At first I was pissed but, with the remander of the plan in place this deal makes sense This is just silly. Sorry to inform you teams do this all the time. All this money comes from where exactly? Gone off the books in 05, Maggs, Pauly, Lee, jose.. Right there 35mil to spend and in 06 Carla(if he still around after the oFfense gets tweaked ) and Thomas are gone there is another 12 mil Pretty sure he wants to be a set-up man, which he would not be here. So have fun trying to convince him. Kline >>>Marte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It fills both team needs Garland is a down grade from burnett and castillo is a downgrade from konerko and they would be taking on money i believe while only having konerko for one year. Gone off the books in 05, Maggs, Pauly, Lee, jose.. Right there 35mil to spend and in 06 Carla(if he still around after the oFfense gets tweaked ) and Thomas are gone there is another 12 mil Maggs and valentin are already off the books and their money have been spent. Kline >>>Marte Based on what? Last season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
