My friend who works in the Sox marketing department told me this after the Sox lost today. Magglio Ordonez and the Sox are close on a contract extension that would be worth 6-years and $80 million dollars. I hope he wasn't pulling my leg, but he sounded serious. By the Way, i am new site. It's very cool!! However, take this for what it is worth.

Wow!! Sounds too good to be true, but hopefully it is true and it seems like a good deal for both.

Welcome to Soxtalk ColdBlood . So let me get this straight.. the original deal was 5/70. Now it's 6/80?

If this turns out to be true, this will be the greatest first post by a soxtalk member, ever.

Overpaid if we actually pay him that much

 

Unless JR is increasing the payroll, in which case I am fine with it, this will be another stupid move (like overpaying Botch and Paulie and C Lee) that will hurt our chances of ever winning the big one

Sox R Us at some point you have to pay a guy what he's worth

on the market.

If the Chicago (small market team in big market) White Sox

can't keep Magglio Ordonez, then disband the team.

Nuke the team.

Baseball still wants to downsize anyway.

 

We must keep Maggs.

It's the marketing departments job to get the fans excited about coming out to the park. Hmmm, I wonder what they would be tring to attempt with misinformation.

 

After 3 days of the NY media reporting maggs wouldn't sign an extension -- Which I said was total bulls*** -- The sox(your friend) finally decided to combat bulls*** with buls***. Sure some people may get excited, but those people believe everything they read or hear.

I think he's pulling your leg.

He is pulling all three legs!

He is pulling all three legs!

We need some sort of official Magglio contract thread, that way all the non-sense is in one thread. I'm tired of this already.

Maybe he's the same Guy who posted that he knew someone in the Padres front Office and told us we traded Valentin to SD for Kevin Jarvis

Thanks for the info. It may be true and it may not. However, you brought what info you had and ID'ed the source as much as possible. I personally like to hear the "through the grapevine" stuff, though I know there's a good chance things won't work out that way or that tomorrow it could all change.

 

 

And welcome to Soxtalk, BTW.
