December 3, 201015 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 10:01 PM) Actually, if they add Putz at 5 mil and Konerko for about 9, they don't add a lot of money since AJ took less and Jenks is gone. -2.67 AJ -3 (est) Kong -7.5 Jenks -4 Manny -1.5 Kotsay -.5 Jones +2 Putz +14 Dunn + salary jumps for younger guys + cheap MR + $400K Castro + $3M+ Danks + $2.25M Floyd + $500K Linebrink + $1M Peavy + Tony Pena salary increase + $2M Pierre + ~$1.8M Quentin + $1.65 Ramirez + $2.3M Rios + $2.5M Teahen + $750K Thornton + $375K Vizquel Our payroll is at about $98.55M right now not counting Pena, Quentin or Danks and assuming Dunn will be paid $14M in 2011 and Pierz will get $4M in 2011.

I wonder if JR is willing to spend $12 million extra on Putz and Lee...
December 3, 201015 yr I honestly never thought we'd see another $115-120 million dollar roster under JR anytime soon after the 09/10 disappointments. Surprising, to say the least.

Is that counting Viciedo's money too?
December 3, 201015 yr QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 10:23 PM) Is that counting Viciedo's money too? Yes. His $1.25M is included.

December 3, 201015 yr QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 10:36 PM) Why'd you include AJ? http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=80043
December 3, 201015 yr hmm...yet to hear anything from Ozzie. It's a definite return to a power lineup with Dunn in the mix.
December 3, 201015 yr If Paulie truly wants to win, it'd behoove him to stay now. On paper with Paulie and Dunn we have a better lineup and if our pitchers get their heads out of their collective asses, we have a good enough contender on paper.
December 3, 201015 yr By ESPNChicago.comKeith Law reacts to the Adam Dunn signing by the Chicago White Sox, saying that they get a huge upgrade at designated hitter, a position where production was severely lacking last season. But the contract likely will cover the 31-year-old's first declining years, making his long-term impact a bit of a question.

December 3, 201015 yr Cartoon Adam Dunn looks like Jimmy Durante. Hopefully he'll make someone happy.
December 3, 201015 yr Heh, at least Dunn has a reputation as good clubhouse guy too, so there will still be someone snapping towels.
