Greg Hibbard Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I'm really trying hard not to get my hopes up. This is about money, and Damon is only holding out for more money from Detroit. They will offer it to him eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 17, 2010 -> 02:17 PM) My only concern is why AJ, Damon, and Hawk share a son. link In the words of Jon Lajoie, they are "eskimo brothers". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been reported that Damon's wife is against the idea of living in the Detroit area. If that's true, it's probably not just about money.

shago Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 17, 2010 -> 01:48 PM) Believe what you will, but casual fans count and there will be a bump in ticket sales if Damon signs. Much more than a Juan Pierre trade or Alex Rios pick up....... FWIW, Hawk has confirmed the golf story. He apparently would love the Sox to add Damon. Completely agree with this statement. Would enhance the buzz in the media about this team, pop ticket sales, etc. The guy's a winner, fan favorite, clubhouse favorite, fits the profile of the team... Quote in the '05 ALDS after they lost to the Sox, "they remind me a lot of us last year" -- he wants it! Would be so awesome. Maybe Alex will agree to give back some of his undeserved salary to make it happen. Loved watching the Bekins moving truck loading at US Cellular today...

GreatScott82 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) What a great week it would be for Jerry Reinsdorf if he can aqcuire Johnny Damon AND shed about $24 million in basketball contracts going into next years star studded free agency.

If that's true, it's probably not just about money. It could be that Boras leaked that Damon's wife was against the idea of living in the Detroit area. There's just too much smoke at this point. As usual, it seems as though the only facts we can suss are that Detroit is offering more money than we are. We can't we just match the g___damned offer for f**king once?

ThunderBolt Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 17, 2010 -> 02:06 PM) It would probably be good bye to the 12th pitcher, unless the Sox make a trade, which is extremely possible. I'd float Kotsay for a lefty, and see who bites. Renyel Pinto is out of options for the Marlins, and they might be looking to replace Ross Gload.

Renyel Pinto is out of options for the Marlins, and they might be looking to replace Ross Gload. That's a good point, Gload and Kotsay fill basically the same role at this point in their careers. But I doubt they trade Kotsay at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically I got a feeling Johnny is saying, Jerry, just give me a little more dough. I'll take less, but at the same time I can't take half of what else is out there.
