Felix Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 24, 2005 -> 08:13 PM) Depends on what he's offered at the end of the year. If Anaheim offers him $15 million a year for 5 years, is he a good value then? Yes. I'd be willing to give Konerko up to ~$18 million, but past that, im not sure about it. He adds some sort of fear to our lineup, something Tracy, Overbay, or Gload dont do. He is the rock of the lineup, and I see no reason to be stingy in paying him.

Felix Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 24, 2005 -> 08:15 PM) Garcia stays in the game, but Gload's at 1b and made a great pick on the play. And Borchard is in right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have taken him out, but at least it's not an insane number yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 24, 2005 -> 08:17 PM) 18 million a year? Considering the market which is available for the Sox if Konerko walks, yes. He's a good 40 HR hitter a year, something which isnt going to be available at 1b in the FA market for many years to come.

I'm not saying he's worth $40 million, but $18 million for Konerko would be about as bad of a contract as Eric Milton's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
