December 3, 200421 yr Whatta you guys think ,Silvy on 1000 said he thinks the cubs will sign him, whatta you guys think? i hope not. :fthecubs
December 3, 200421 yr In my opinion, there is NO way he ends up with the Cubs. They have to move Sosa first, and it's seeming more and more unlikely that will happen.
December 3, 200421 yr Angels. We have to make a play for davanon then -- He'd be wasting away behind Vlad, Anderson, Beltran
December 3, 200421 yr I think Anaheim will sit slow and let the other teams get in and make offers and then try and snatch him cause I think thast where he wants to play. I also think Anaheim will sign Carl Pavano.
December 3, 200421 yr We have to make a play for davanon then -- He'd be wasting away behind Vlad, Anderson, Beltran Man Cheat, I'd be so excited to get Davannon. He's the one high walk guy the Angels have and would be a great fit considering he can play any outfield position. I bet the Angels would think about a Cotts/Davannon swap. Sox maybe giving up a little something else.
December 3, 200421 yr I still say Baltimore makes a run at him.. with the Angels also in the running.
December 3, 200421 yr No way in hell Beltran goes to Baltimore if he wants to win a World Series title ever. Until they can find a decent rotation they will continue to be behind the Red Sox and Yankees.

December 3, 200421 yr No way in hell Beltran goes to Baltimore if he wants to win a World Series title ever. Until they can find a decent rotation they will continue to be behind the Red Sox and Yankees. The only reason I say so is, they were major players in the Vladdy sweepstakes, and lost. Now they have the cash to spend.
December 3, 200421 yr I think with all the Giambi s*** the Yankees are going to have to make a huge positive splash, they've cooled off on RJ (for now, I still feel he will end up there though), so I think they're going to push hard for Beltran
December 3, 200421 yr I think Anaheim will sit slow and let the other teams get in and make offers and then try and snatch him cause I think thast where he wants to play. I also think Anaheim will sign Carl Pavano. Beltran to the Angels. Pavano to the Red Sox.
December 3, 200421 yr I predicted that the Stros would resign Beltran BUT if the Yankees legitimately feel that they will be able to void the last $82 million on Gimabi's deal, then I expect a moster contract handed down by the Yanks. The first year might be lower due to the Giambi fiasco but I bet they'd spend that money. Were it not for the Giambi predicament, I feel he would have stayed in Houston.
December 3, 200421 yr One would think he would want to stay in the NL and face the Braves and Cardinals 20+ times..
December 3, 200421 yr Beltran goes to The Yankees. Houston has too many question marks right now, with Clemens unsure and Berkman hurt.

The first year might be lower due to the Giambi fiasco but I bet they'd spend that money. Were it not for the Giambi predicament, I feel he would have stayed in Houston. Once the MLBPA gets a hold of this voided contract thing, they will litigate it to death. I don't think the Yankees will be guaranteed to have that money back in time to sign Beltran.
December 3, 200421 yr Your right, that's why I feel that they would backload it. I think their legal expert will have a better handle on their chances in the coming months, and I think Beltran will be a free agent on February 1st no matter what.
December 3, 200421 yr I still say Baltimore makes a run at him.. with the Angels also in the running. Definitely not going to Baltimore.
