He will get at least eleven according to rotoworld and i know somewhere in the rumors thread people were mentioning how he was either offered that much or wants that much. I am gonna go look for it now.
I like him, don't get me wrong. Problem with his last contract is he was vastly overpaid. Also if he thinks he is gonna get 16 million per year i think he is dreaming.
You know that i could care less if a player strikes out. But man does he have some ugly ass swings whenever he strikes out. He is like uribe, well uribe is probally like him, falling over on their horrible swings.
Props to chandler tonight, he held dirk to 4-18 shooting. He did make 13 free throws on 19 attempts which is pretty bad for such and excellent free throw shooter. Also the game before against the timberwolvers he held garnett to 6-17 shooting.
While i like perez ( who will make 7-9 million) and clement who is reportedly up to nine million per season, i don't know if i like them that much. I don't think they want to spend all of there money on one person. The sorta pitcher i see getting brought in is a paul byrd type.
That is what i am thinking, why not try and get something, anything for him. Such as another middle infielder bullpen are ( which they really do not need) or some prospects.
