[rjs246]

you all need to jump into a giant bowl of acid.

[MDS]

How long did it take you to find that picture.

[rjs246]

About 35 seconds.

[MDS]

Well done.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Rowand's got a lot of heart, though.  Like Reno Mahe heart.

ryan howards dad told the phils he wants soriano money for his son as opposed to the normal going rate for a second year guy who is still four years from free agency

theres not a chance in hell ryan howard isnt playing in st louis come 2011

at least he will 32 by then old fat ugly and undeserving of a 8 year 200 million dollar contract

phils gotta go all out for a title while he is still here

[MURP]

why St Louis?

[ice grillin you]

its where he grew up and still lives

in fact he is in the process of building a huge new house right outside the city

[Wingspan]

like i have said, the phils keep their budget in tact. and that will lead to either utley or howard to never seeing a 2nd contract from the phils.

link, or is it hearsay from WIP?  He's only been in the league two years and can't demand $160M...



Arbitration numbers are in:

Utley offered $4.5 million, asked for $6.25 million.
Myers offered $5 million, asked for $5.9 million.
Geary offered $750,000, asked for $925,000.

Almost a $2M difference for Utley and nothing is mentioned.  Myers is off by $900K and he's a whiner with contract issues.  hmmm

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Utley's VORP is higher than Myers'.


(Actually, I'm serious.)

[Rome]

I'd bet a dollar than Utley will get a long-term deal before arbitration.

Myers won't.

Geary = no way he wins.
