Chisoxfn Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 I'm not sure about the Sox interest in Jose Contreras. Has he officially became a free agent? I think he'd be an excellent pickup, but we'll likely have to compete with the Red Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulokis Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 I just read an article on MLB.com that Jose Contreras was granted the free agency. The Red Sox are the top runner to get Contreras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 Thats sweet. This would be a real good pickup for 5 mill or less. The problem is he may get big bucks. As long as this guys in pitching shape, I hope KW goes after him. He's put up amazing stats and is the top guy in Cuba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesomefan Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 I heard that he was finally given citizenship or something that will make him an eligible player in the Majors. In some country in Central America I think.Text Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 I wish someone would have posed that question to KW when he was on the Score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted December 19, 2002 Share Posted December 19, 2002 I emailed them questions, but they didn't take emails. That question was on my list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 He won't be talking to any teams till after Christmas or at least thats what he's saying. He wants to spend Christmas with his friends and family. He established residence in Nicaragua to become a free agent and he doesn't plan to leave for the US till after XMAS.
