January 19, 200620 yr I got a kick out of this one: Catcher Josh Paul filed the lowest request, $750,000, and Tampa Bay made him the lowest offer, $475,000, a raise of just $25,000. You made $450,000 last year as a backup catcher who doesn't apply tags on close calls (see ALCS), you ask for $750,000, and your new team gives you an offer of $475,000. Man you must feel like a hot commodity. Widger got $500,000. The rest are here: http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=ArDd...ov=ap&type=lgns
January 19, 200620 yr Josh Paul is not worth very much, but he certainly helped us out thanks for not tagging AJ!
January 19, 200620 yr QUOTE(Reddy @ Jan 18, 2006 -> 10:26 PM) does josh get a ring too? I don't know, but i think he should.
January 19, 200620 yr Author No, Biggio gets a ring for his routine popup drop in the WS. Paul gets ALCS credit, and Graffanino ALDS credit. Thanks to all of you for your non-stellar play!
