fathom Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 1, 2011 -> 08:59 PM) Yeah. The Yankees made a mistake last offseason when they signed Posada to a 4 year deal in 2007 rather than Dunn after 2010. They should have predicted that in 3 years they'd want to move Posada to DH and only signed him for 3 years and then not had him walk away. Was Posada that bad defensively where they felt they had to move him to DH? Oh, and if you want the team that I think would take Dunn, it would have been the Cubs if Pujols had stayed in St. Louis.

If he is traded the option is 100% in effect he gets it all next year that is how MB wanted the contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa1334 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ May 1, 2011 -> 03:59 PM) It's called strategy. Johnson is absolutely the perfect pitcher for Dunn to hit. yea and just yesterday people were saying dunn is the worst hitter theyve ever seen and why did we sign him.ok , ozzie ph's him and strikes out then its, why would he bring in dunn??he sucks!

They wanted to try to keep him healthy. He's played 51, 111, and 120 games the last 3 years respectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MB can also choose to waive the option. If the Sox are totally out of the pennant race this season and clearly not resignning him, that's reason why he might do so.

No, that was a preventative measure to assure that he'd get his 10/5 rights. That option is no longer in effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
