    I don't understand the logic here: We give K-Pee a September call-up in 2000, 60 games in 2001, and then 4 full season to show he bad he sucks, yet we only give a September call-up in 2004, and half a season, and b/c of a slow start, not to mention being blocked by Hollandsworth, and Dusty's love for unproductive veterens, he's traded away.

    Actually, I think you could. If there's language in a contract saying you can't do certian things, and a player gets hurt doing that, then I don't think they're liable for some money There you go. And if it's been an issue in the past with the Sox, then they should have something in his contract. If they don't, then it's their own fault. There's also the issue of not having your best pitcher playing. It's not just money. And I'm not so sure that would fly by the union. If putting that type of language in the contract, I'm assuming it would have to be an option to void the contract, not just not pay him. Yeah. I think you could terminate the deal. The Yankees have a team policy that they can terminate your deal if you inflict injury upon yourself by intentionally striking any hard surface with any part of your body, from when Kevin Brown punched a wall in 2004 The Yankees also got out of Boone's contract when he hurt himself playing basketball in the offseason. If I remember correctly, he wasn't supposed to play basketball, according to his contract. Yup. And Houston could've terminated Berkman's deal, since he tore his knee playing football, which his contract prohibited. Bulls guard Jay Williams got his contract terminated for riding a motorcycle when he wasn't supposed to.

    ^ And considering Aramis went yard right after
  4. Big Z 38
    That was a stupid trade.
  5. Big Z 38
    Why? Does Damon want to play LF? Hunter's much better defensively in CF than Damon. Maybe he does.
  6. Big Z 38
    Yeah. He took the juice when he was with us

    Edmonds follows Pujols, b/c crap always follows a poo-hole :lol:

    He had 195 Ks in 2004, yet he still walked 108 times

    What about Vince Coleman getting crushed by one?
  12. Big Z 38
    IDK why we had him on the trade block this winter. My bet is b/c Niefi is Dusty's toy and he wants to use him more than anyone.

    What a spectacularly bad trade that was for the Knicks. They got Curry, they still suck, they are like $1 jabillion over the cap, and the Bulls own two consecutive first rounders. Isaia Thomas is a Moran He's a genious (In Chicago) :D :P. We don't excatly own the Knicks pick in 2007. We have the right to swap picks with them

    I fear that Jones will soon become one of Dusty's toys, as he starts becomming an unproductive veteren, the type of guys Dusty likes
  15. Big Z 38
    A village idiot

    I hope the Knicks continue their suckiness so Greg Oden is ours
  17. Big Z 38
    I hope not. I want to be able to wear it on the middle finger
  18. Big Z 38
    Prior is under our control thru 2008, and Z helped us by firing Scott Boras
  19. Big Z 38
    We should've given Jones 1 year w/ a team option for 2007. That way, we have so much more flexibility
  20. Big Z 38
    It's his workout regimen. He needs to back off. I think if he backed off some, he'd be an animal
  21. Big Z 38
    That was stupid. I'd have given him 1-year guarenteed, w/ a team option for 2007
  22. Big Z 38
    And we'll be sure to thank you when he rips his hamstring
  23. Big Z 38
    Buerhle is a village idiot. He makes inflammatory statements about the Twins and Indians 24/7, he goes at it with Cubs fans, accuses Dempster of being on the juice, accuses Mad Dog and Johan Santana of licking and doctoring baseballs, tries to kill Travis Hafner, and says the Rangers use a scoreboard to steal signs. It's truely a shame he plays in the AL, b/c someone should seriously consider throwing a 100 mph fastball at his head

    I was hoping we'd miss the playoffs so we could get a better draft pick
