    7 years, $126 mil. Please explain why they didn't resign Dunn and did this.

    I would have a hard time giving any player 7 years...especially someone that's already 30.

    Phils won't get the Nats 1st round pick since it's protected. That fucking blows

    Yeah, I am reading the Gonzalez is deal is not completely dead though. Interesting day. Bad day for the Red Sox. They should just pay Gonzalez.

    Yeah, 7 years is a lot. If I were Boston I would give Agon 7 though, assuming his shoulder is good.

    Do they get a supplemental pick?

    There is just no getting around it. This is an absolutely horrible contract for a team that is not going to be competitive until Werths productive years are behind him.

    pretty sure they get a supplemental pick and the nats 2nd rounder. I'm not 100% sure about the 2nd rounder

    EDIT: I'd pay gonzalez too if I were boston. I think he's one of the most underrated players in baseball. He will put up monster numbers in Fenway

    I guess this isn't the end of the world. The Phils should have 4 of the top 50 picks in what is supposed to be a loaded 2011 draft.



    The Nationals have the sixth pick in the draft and the top 15 picks are protected by Major League Baseball from being moved as compensation. That means the Phillies will receive a second-round pick from Washington along with a compensatory pick in the sandwich round.

    Unreal that they let this deal get this far and let it slip through because he is asking for Teixiera money. Of course he is asking for Teixiera money. I can't understand how Theo is letting this happen again. Another PR nightmare. 24 hours ago Boston fans were hoping for a lineup that included Werth/Agon and now what? If they won't pay Gonzalez this there is no way they match whatever the Angels are going to offer Crawford. So now overpay for Beltre? They have to get the Agon deal done, I don't think they have any other option. Edit: I guess they can always wait until next year for Gonzalez but who knows what the situation will be then.

    And to add salt to the wounds the Yanks have a great shot at signing Cliff Lee this week. This is fantastic.

    Not bad, although I am sure they were hoping/expecting a first rounder.

    Boston got him. Figured they had to get it done, especially with Werth off the board.

    This is great. On Werth:

    So the laughing stock of the NL East is calling another team the laughing stock of the NL East?

    Well in all fairness, it's not his fault the Mets are the laughing stock of the division.

    This is true. But I have a feeling it's a disease that you can catch by breathing in the air.

    i like what anthopolous is doing here in toronto ... he's trading for young guys or guys with a reasonable contract ... doesn't mind getting guys that are going to be impending FA because he can use the compensatory draft picks ...

    i like this marcum for lawrie deal if it goes thru ...

    Another year and Marvin Miller is still not in the hall of fame. What a joke. Marvin Miller has had 8457348957348957344534534798 times the impact on the game than Pat Gillick did.
