December 22, 200322 yr a friend of mine who knows his stuff emailed me and mentioned in passing "looks like we signed Ponson." did we?
December 22, 200322 yr Are you sure it isn't that article from earlier from the Akron Beacon? Damn Ohio liars.
December 22, 200322 yr Damn Ohio liars. And this is the main reason I refused to move to Columbus, OH last December...
December 22, 200322 yr And this is the main reason I refused to move to Columbus, OH last December... They are all evil.
December 22, 200322 yr Author Just asking - this is a real Sox fan and it was just an email comment and I can't find it anywhere but I am at work and can't look much and I haven't heard back from him where he heard that sorry to have troubled anyone
December 22, 200322 yr Steff you know anything about it? I posted what I was told last week - and was called a liar...
December 22, 200322 yr I posted what I was told last week - and was called a liar... No problem. I understand. And cw, I was just thinking your friend might have gotten ahold of that old newspaper article from last week. No trouble at all.
December 22, 200322 yr No problem. I understand. And cw, I was just thinking your friend might have gotten ahold of that old newspaper article from last week. No trouble at all. Why did they even make that article?
December 22, 200322 yr Why did they even make that article? It was true.. just a week late. The Sox did make an offer, on the 9th.
December 22, 200322 yr Monday morning. I have been searching different sites and can't find anything yet on Ponson. I did see the contradictory stories in the Sun-Times and Tribune on Schonenweis, or however you spell his name. One says he was non-tendered and the other says he was offered arbitration?
December 22, 200322 yr It was true.. just a week late. The Sox did make an offer, on the 9th. Is that offer still on the table or was it turned down? I don't remember you being called a liar, but I will take your word for it. If it makes you feel any better, I think most of us have pretty short memories here.
December 22, 200322 yr Is that offer still on the table or was it turned down? I don't remember you being called a liar, but I will take your word for it. If it makes you feel any better, I think most of us have pretty short memories here. I think the fact that nothing has been since pretty much confirms that their offer was s***.
December 22, 200322 yr I think the fact that nothing has been since pretty much confirms that their offer was s***. They offered $18 mil with like $17 mil deferred most likely.
December 22, 200322 yr I think the fact that nothing has been since pretty much confirms that their offer was s***. Of course 3/18 including deferred and incenstives is s***! He wouldn't come to the Sox for anything less than 3/22-25. This team has bad rep and with Escobar, Redman and Colon getting what they got, other teams will pay more than 18.
December 22, 200322 yr Of course 3/18 including deferred and incenstives is s***! He wouldn't come to the Sox for anything less than 3/22-25. I'd give him $7 a year over three years. Incentives may help.
December 22, 200322 yr I'd give him $7 a year over three years. Incentives may help. I like Ponson but i dont think he is worth 7mil per for 3 yrs I think 5mil is a fair price for a pitcher who before last season was an underacheiver.
