November 2, 200619 yr Interesting tidbit http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/sports/15906064.htm whoops can someone fix my spelling.
November 2, 200619 yr I'm shocked that the best defensive CF in baseball would have his option declined. Edited November 2, 200619 yr by whitesoxfan101
November 2, 200619 yr Here comes the onslaught of "Bring Back Aaron" threads...... ....can he play LF?????
November 2, 200619 yr The article states that he almost will certainly resign, it's just a salary issue. His option was at $3.25mil and their was $5.0mil. He'll sign something around $4-$4.5
November 2, 200619 yr He's still eligible for arbitration, he'll be back in Philly, it's just a matter of it being a smart or stupid move for Philly depending on if he makes more or less what the option was for.
November 2, 200619 yr QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Nov 2, 2006 -> 03:07 PM) I'm shocked that the best defensive CF in baseball would have his option declined. No the Twins picked up Hunter's option
November 2, 200619 yr QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Nov 2, 2006 -> 06:54 PM) No the Twins picked up Hunter's option He wasn't the same this year, we'll see if he's back in 07 after the injury from 06.
November 3, 200619 yr QUOTE(Whitewashed in @ Nov 2, 2006 -> 05:59 PM) He wasn't the same this year, we'll see if he's back in 07 after the injury from 06. He was solid though all the same...perhaps not GG, but as far as I could tell, he still looked solid. I was really just trying to point out that Aaron Rowand is not the best defensive CFer in the game
November 3, 200619 yr I am surprised both sides are haggling over such a small amount. $3.25 to $5.00. From the player's perspective, it shows how much the team actually values him, which is not much.
November 3, 200619 yr QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Nov 2, 2006 -> 06:46 PM) I still have a feeling the twins might trade Torii I think the Twins are trying to figure out what's up with Liriano (sp?) before they make any moves this offseason, but I can see if he's out for all of 2007 that they would trade Hunter. They would have to replace Radke and Liriano in their rotation with a limited budget.

The Phils don't see balls-to-the-wall 110% effort, they see recklessness that brings multiple injuries that can shorten a season and a career.
