October 30, 200817 yr QUOTE (yoyozuna @ Oct 30, 2008 -> 11:16 AM) If so was it for 16 million? I haven't seen anything. If they did it wasn't for $16M.
October 30, 200817 yr QUOTE (yoyozuna @ Oct 30, 2008 -> 09:16 AM) If so was it for 16 million? We wouldn't be re-signing him. It would be a team option for $16M (which I highly doubt they pick up), or a buyout for like $4M (I think), and then MAYBE after the buyout they could make him an offer (which I also doubt).

That is the only plausible scenario that could have taken place for us to re-sign the guy.
October 30, 200817 yr I thought I read on espn.com yesterday that they were NOT going to try and sign him. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3669977
October 30, 200817 yr Most likely, it was a buyout, then they're offering arbitration to try and get draft picks.
