Zac, I am going to go ahead and post this: Can you re-sign Rekar for me? Try 2.5 for 3 and see if you can get him to sign less than that. I would rather not go more than 3 years and 3 million. Thanks
Congratulations to the Houston Astros who beat the Twins in 6 games for the championship. Roy Oswalt struck out 12 in 8 shutout innings in the clincher. I don't know for sure when free agency is going to be, although Sundays always seem to be pretty good for me. But as it stands, I'll give you folks a couple days to resign players - post here or see me in chat, 'cause I'll be moving to the new season on Wednesday.
Sunday would also be good for me. As long as it is not on Tuesday or Wednesday, then any of the other days would be fine.
Sunday is fine, if we can do it around 6 or so. I have tickets to the Texans game at noon... Also, if anyone is is interested in Alfonso Soriano, send me an email at SlamDuncan2121@aol.com with a proposal. Great defense, great speed, good power, and good average at 2B. I'm looking for a good 3B with some pop and hopefully some OBP, or to package Soriano with someone like Padilla or Astacio for an upgrade at SP. Let me know.
Hey Cat, Do you happen to know how much cash you're supposed to have? I never fixed it after the restart (I'm guessing it isn't $50,000,000) and I figure I best get it done before free agency. Sorry
Sunday of course is the only day I can't make it (every week). So you guys have found the perfect way to keep the free agency move a long quickly without me spending all of hard cash! If it could be done any other day than sunday, and it would fit like a winning homerun in the WS (but first you have to make it out of the first round).
Just get Puedlfor or someone else to handle your bids, Heath. That is what I have done in the past when I can't make it.
Cool. Thanks. We're gonna call it $25 million. This leaves you with about $28M for signing those pesky free agents.
Sunday is fine for me as well. I would like it to be after 3:00 pm central as I am a big titan fan. But I'll be here whenever.
Sunday evening would be fine, but it really doesn't matter as I don't plan on making many bids, if any at all. I would like to be present during the draft, and I assume that would be afterwards if we started early enough on Sunday.
Right, so looks like everybody resigned all the FAs they wanted. Haven handed the Atlanta reins back to Bobby Cox, who re-signed Millwood, Betemit, and Marquis. New season now, so if you wanted to resign someone, sorry.
The new baseball season page has been updated. Note though, that the profiles are still old, as if they were updated now they would have ratings on them. They will be updated before the draft, but after FA.
