THE MVP GOES TO <B>DRAYTON MCCLANE</b> FOR SCREWING THE FANS, HIS TEAM, AND OUR CITY. I HATE THIS TEAM'S MANAGEMENT AND WILL DO SO UNTIL THE TEAM IS BOUGHT BY SOMEONE WHO GIVES A DAMN! <i>Go 'Stros</i> nonetheless.
I believe Biggio was already under contract through next season......but he signed a 2 year contract extension. I'm pretty sure that Drayton McClane was out at his ranch working out the kinks.
Nope, you are mistaken. Biggio's contract ran through 2003 and he signed a two year extension to accomodate his move to CF. The team has an option for 2005. "Craig Biggio - signed a 3-year contract after the 1999 season for $21 million dollars plus a $7 million signing bonus distributed unevenly from 2000 to 2004. Signed an extension after the 2003 [note: this should say 2002] season, paying Biggio $3 million in 2004 plus $1.5 million in incentives. The team has an option for $3 million in 2005 plus $1.5 million. If the option for 2005 is not exercised, Biggio receives a $1 million buyout." from astrosdaily.com
