the money? whatever in this market everyone is getting overpaid and Illitch has deep pockets so that doesn't bother me. It's the years that I don't like. 9 years is too many years to commit to any player I don't care who he is.

"Somedays I wake up and feel like nobody loves me. Other days I wake up and feel like I love nobody. Sometimes I wake up and feel tired, and worn out. Sometimes I wake up and feel like I cannot face the day. But someday I'll wake up and realize that waking up is pretty stupid because it just makes you feel like crap."

Did he get a no-trade clause? I seriously doubt he did, given the number of years involved.Originally Posted by Joebob034
I haven't heard anything about no-trade clauses, but reportedly he doesn't have any opt-out clauses, not that he would need them with that contract.

Dude, he's making A Rod/Pujols money....he's not even close to their league
He did put up better numbers last season.
I'll give you Pujols, but I think Prince is a better value than A-Rod. Prince has better power especially since A-Rod can't juice anymore. I know playing 3B A-Rod has a more value defensively than Prince but with A-Rod being at the end of his career and Prince being at his peak right now Prince is the better deal of the two.

Wakefield retires after 17 years with Red Sox
Thanks for the memories Wake, you were one of the great ones...showed up and did your job without complaining. And the BoSox wouldn't have won those two World Series without you. You'll be missed.
Spring training exhibition games are in full swing now.
i signed up for the fantasy league
Good. Glad to have you aboard.
