It was pretty good, certainly good enough to still be sold. Why don't they sell it anymore? Sales were decreasing every year. I think I was responsible for 40% of the sales though. I barely drink pop now that it's not for sale. They have talked about bringing it back though. http://tinyurl.com/y5qadh
About the payroll.. They said they wanted to spend $115 million... I believe we started out in the mid 80's. So far we've spent: 17 million on Soriano, 14.6 on Ramirez, 1.5 on Miller, 4.3 on the Mark of Rose.. $37.4 million. Around $125 mil. Anyone have exact calculations?
- What are the chances he'll play 2B? Infield of Lee, Barrett, Soriano, Ramirez... - If outfield, shouldnt he play LF? Isnt that what he played in Washington? - Where does he rank in terms of $$$/year? Is it right behind A-Rod?
Neal Cotts is more proven, at least. Aardsma is young, and can still blossom into a reliable reliever. We'll just wait and see if this trade was worth it.
There were at least 5 game threads longer than this, and I'm pretty sure there was a Juan Pierre thread longer, and the Aramis thread in Transactions now is longer. It's long, but it's not by any stretch near the top. There were some CRAZY long Maddux and Nomar threads. Longest non-Cub thread. BEARS WIN! BEARS WIN! BEARS WIN!
