November 17, 200421 yr I like Renteria but he's not a leadoff hitter. I seem to recall reading that Renteria doesn't like to lead off either.
November 17, 200421 yr Check on OBP ... since that was what I said was equal to Uribe's Again I say to you..Tejeda in 2003 had a bad year, as did Renteria in 2004...I take my chances with Renteria, over Uribe. Uribe had a great first 1/3 of the season then fell off then at the end turned it on again..That not a player I want to play everyday, give me a player who can hit around .300 all year long, which Renteria has been shown he can do in the past.

And again I say to you .. the difference between Renteria and Uribe is not worth $7 million in payroll .... not to this team.
November 17, 200421 yr And again I say to you .. the difference between Renteria and Uribe is not worth $7 million in payroll .... not to this team. We have 40mil to spend on upgrades.. Y You don't think that Renteria is an upgrade over Uribe.. Then how the hell do you type with the blind cane? The Sox need 3 things this offseason, actually 4 but the 4th is a little hard to come by. 1. A starter 2. A Defense SS, which Renteria is 3. RF and the 4th A GM

I'm done talking to you. Take that blind cane and put where the sun don't shine. $40 million to spend? BWAAAHAHAHA
November 17, 200421 yr You know what .... I'm done talking to you. Take that blind cane and put where the sun don't shine. $40 million to spend? BWAAAHAHAHA Thank you for proving my point...
November 17, 200421 yr Thank you for proving my point... If you think your point is proved you are so f***ing wrong.
November 17, 200421 yr In any case. I'd take an SS of Renteria, 2B of Uribe, and 3B of Crede or SS of Renteria, 2B of WIllie (lefty), 3B of Uribe
November 17, 200421 yr Welcome to Soxtalk :dips*** okay I was wrong we only have 35.5 Million to spend, if KW lets the payroll go to 75mil But if we can trade away Pauly's 8 mil a year. More cash to spend Thanks for the welcome, I be sure to bring knoweldge to the board something that you seem to be lacking!

More cash to spend Thanks for the welcome, I be sure to bring knoweldge to the board something that you seem to be lacking! We'll see who brings more to the board. I have no problem with that comparison. Let time tell it's tale. Regarding the payroll, we have about $12 million tops to spend.

More cash to spend Thanks for the welcome, I be sure to bring knoweldge to the board something that you seem to be lacking! I very highly doubt we have that much money. Arbitration and raises will eat alot up.
November 17, 200421 yr We'll see who brings more to the board. I have no problem with that comparison. Let time tell it's tale. Regarding the payroll, we have about $12 million tops to spend. Where do you get those numbers from? Maggs's 14 mil gone Jose 5 Mil gone Alomars about 2 mil gone Schoenweiss about 2 mil gone But with that Shingo increase to 2.5 mil Burhurle is at 6 Garcia us at 7 Somaybe 40 was a little high, I say around 20-25...12 is way to low of a number.

Contreras $6 mill Everett $4 mill
November 17, 200421 yr Contreras $6 mill Everett $4 mill Those are figured into the Salary already, Everett gets a 1 mil increase and Contreas actually is the same as last year since the Spankies picked up the difference. We are at about 55-57 Mil
November 17, 200421 yr someone want to double check my Salary for Mark and Freddy.. I thought those were what they were suppose to be making.
November 17, 200421 yr Contreras $6 mill Everett $4 mill Keep going ... raises, etc. There is about $63 million in payroll already committed. IF we go to $75, we have about 12 to spend. But Anthrax is SO intelligent.
November 17, 200421 yr Those are figured into the Salary already, Everett gets a 1 mil increase and Contreas actually is the same as last year since the Spankies picked up the difference. We are at about 55-57 Mil Those two salaries are new for 2005. NY picked up only $2 mill of Jose's $8 mill. salary. The sox picked up Carl's 2005 option at $4 mill.
November 17, 200421 yr Keep going ... raises, etc. There is about $63 million in payroll already committed. IF we go to $75, we have about 12 to spend. But Anthrax is SO intelligent. Nope we are at 55-57 range.. not 63
November 17, 200421 yr Those two salaries are new for 2005. NY picked up only $2 mill of Jose's $8 mill. salary. The sox picked up Carl's 2005 option at $4 mill. NY picked up 2 mil a year for the remander of the contract Everett was included in the 65 mil with his 3mil Salary.. so his 4 mil only increases it by 1 mil
November 17, 200421 yr Will one of you guys that are so good at making lists please detail our current payroll. I know there are several all over this board, but I don't have the time nor the inclination to deal with this .... ummmm ... to deal with this now.
November 17, 200421 yr NY picked up 2 mil a year for the remander of the contract Everett was included in the 65 mil with his 3mil Salary.. so his 4 mil only increases it by 1 mil Actually that isn't right. The Sox only had him for under half a year, and even then MTL kicked in for half of his remaining salary. Everett is a net $3 million for next years payroll. http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Baseball/MLB/Mon.../489636-cp.html
November 17, 200421 yr This is what I am going off of in regards to Salary Sox Salary Those are all 2004 numbers. There are a lot of raises coming up. Such as Lee will be 8.75 mil, Thomas 8 mil, Garland will be around $3 mil, Buehrle is going up... etc.
