I feel the same the main reason is Boras wants the attention of the sports world... If we waits until saturday he will get kind of drowned out by the NFL playoffs
Steve Phillips on the Dan Patrick Show (sans Dan Patrick, if you can believe that) said he thinks that CB will end up with the Astros. they finally had a pretty long discussion about the pursuit of CB, thankfully ending the 100 straight hours of continuous NFL talk.
Castor--i heard some of that but i didnt hear the end...what did he say would be the ultimate reason he chose us?
Buster Olney and Steve Phillips were on SportsCenter this morning saying they both thought Houston was the better fit for Carlos. forgot to mention that earlier.
well I can't really say. I was listening to it at work and someone came in to my office right after he said he'd end up with the Astros. He did say he felt the Yanks would not come into play, but I did not hear why he thought he'd choose us over the Mints.
He didn't say anything other than $105 million in Houston is equal to $112 million in NY and that the Mets would probably have to go as high as $120 million, which they probably wouldn't.
So we've gone from: Yankees Astros Yankees Cubs Yankees Astros Yankees Astros Tigers Mets Astros Yikes what a trip
610 just said that Chance has offered to stand a top MM Park naked until Beltran becomes an Astro. Have fun Chance. It's kind of cold outside.
Agreed... and this trip was brought to you by nobody other than Scott Boras. With any other agent, this deal probably goes down at the winter meetings... but Carlos will be getting about 2 years and $30 million more dollars out of his last deal, so you can't fault the tactic. He's still evil.
WOW...just waiting for the final call. tick tock tick tock ....my stomach is turning over with every freakin noise from my clock.
