I would like to see a couple old horses brought in to compliment
our young guns like John Hart did with Martenez,Hershiser & Pena
amoung others in the mid 90's. Go ahead and laugh but there are
quite a few bargains on todays market!

Let me give you some info about these guys last year. Griffey cost $8 mil and slugged just over .400Originally Posted by westcoastbuckeye
<Ivan Rodriguez>
$12 mil for slugging under .400
<Sean Casey>
Is his contract up?
<Omar Visquel>
$5 mil for slugging .267
<Nomar Garciaparra>
$9.5 mil for 163 AB of a 1B
<Adam Dunn>
Dunn is old?
<Jim Edmonds>
Do we get the Cub Edmonds or the Padre Edmonds?
<Frank Thomas>
$12.5 mil for .374 slugging and he can't play the field
<Pedro Martinez>
$12 mil for a guy who can't pitch in cavern Shea?
<Randy Wolf>
Must be free agent time, had his first good PARTIAL year since at least 2004
<Mark Mulder>
His BEST era in the last three years is 7.14
Mythical SF Chronicle scouting report: "That Jeff runs like a deer. Unfortunately, he also hits AND throws like one." I am Venus DeMilo - NO ARM! I can play like a big leaguer, I can field like Luzinski, run like Lombardi. The secret to managing is keeping the ones who hate you away from the undecided ones. I am a triumph of quantity over quality. I'm almost useful, every village needs an idiot.

Ben Sheets would be a great pick up
I know I put three 1B/DH players but we only need to sign one.

Omar got signed by Texas to a minor league contract with an invite
to spring training. Who is next.

Just a baseball fan
Most of these are foolish potential additions:
team is pretty well set at catcher/1b/dh so of course it makes sense to look at:
Pudge Rodriguez
Sean Casey
Frank Thomas
team has a cf who hits left and plays with reckless abandon, so of course Jim Edmonds makes good sense.
Ken Griffey, Jr is a fading star.
The Rangers did sign Omar, but that was to a minor league contract (based on his last few seasons with SF that was the best he could do) with the idea that he is going to tutor their young SS candidate.
Dunn is of moderate interest as is most of the pitchers mentioned (as well as Sheet) but thats going to take the team dumping salary and they may not be able to dump enough to make it work.
It's been written that Shapiro has one more trick up his sleeve - i can't wait to see what it is, but i have a feeling this is the team that goes into ST.
That might not be a bad thing either.

Cross him off everybody's lists now
