That was one incredible photoshopping job. I thought/think it was real.

 

It was a photoshop job.

 

How do you know that?

 

Look at the pic closer. If it were on tv the video would be floating around.

 

No thanks - that's one picture that I definitely don't want to look closer at!

I can't imagine this will happen...they've got at least three positions to fill in the order, and they're still interested in pitching as well...which has been said to be their top priority. I could see Jones coming to StL for a one year deal if they spend a bunch of money on their other holes, but I seriously doubt the Cards would commit that kind of money/years to a mediocre (perhaps I'm being kind) free agent as their first signing of the offseason when they have a standing 3 year deal/27 million (I think) on the table for Giles.

 

Makes no sense whatsoever, won't happen.

 

But Giles won't play for 3/27. Maybe the Cards have realized that and are moving on to Jones at 3/21.

Puke - I'd rather have So Taguchi on the cheap.

But Jones has the quickest bat in the AL. ;)

Nope, he most likely won't play for that... My point was more that's the maximum that the Cards are willing to pay for the premium free agent at a position of need...I can't see them paying almost as much, for the same length of time, for someone who's a lot worse when the position isn't even their top offseason priority. Heck, they could just as well do what the Cubs did and grab Burnitz for a one year deal at five million or less. He'd provide adequate defense, almost identical offensive production, and he's a lefty bat that would fill the same spots in the lineup that Jones would...all for a fraction of the years and total cost.

 

It's just not the sort of move Jocketty would make...I would honestly be stunned if it came to pass.

So, maybe it wasn't taken off of video. Thousands of people have taken still cameras to games. I'm pretty sure that was a real picture.

Are you really basing your Edmonds is gay argument on a picture of him patting somebody after a homerun? When he has 2 kids and one on the way?

are you kidding me? Look at Mac's arms in that picture, one is horribly small because it was photoshopped. I mean, its a funny picture, but it's one of the most obvious photoshops ever.

I never said he was gay. I just mentioned him being in that photo.

I haven't seen that photo in awhile...I don't recall that. Anyone have it?
