I think it's one year with a club option on the 2nd year. Boras cost his client about $5M by advising him to turn down arbitration. I'm glad Varitek is back....
I don't think they signed him for his offense. They want him for his leadership, handling of the staff, and defensive catching. He's worth that and more to...
Plus they were over a barrel in terms of a replacement. Texas (I think) wanted a lot more than they would have given. Otherwise they would have dusted Varitek...
I didn't know he was known for defense. I know he's pretty hapless when Wakefield is on the mound, so much so that he's usually on the bench those days. ... ...
Does anyone else find this obscene? I really had no idea how overpaid he was. If you would have asked me, I would have guessed he made a couple hundred...
I don't liek Varitek. He's never been used with the knuckleball. But yes, he is known for his defense. When he was hurt a few years ago, the team and pitching...
I was very surprised too. The guy has been the worst commisioner of all time, and is incompetent. Regardless, I didn't know commissioners made that much. What...
Most CEO Salaries are obscene. When things go well, they take credit and point to stock price. When things go bad they shrug, blame the market and still take...
I bought Torre's book last night. Have only glanced at it so far and will provide comments as soon as I get through it!! Anthony I bought Torre's book last...
I agree that CEOs are grossly overpaid, but Selig's case is worse. Not only is he a bad commissioner, but his position is of such relative unimportance that...
Let's see under Selig there's been the steriod era, a cancellation of the world series, an all-star game that had to be stopped because there were no more...
I was at the Borders Book Store today and it was wall to wall people(at least 500 people on line for the 1pm signing). As far I am concerned, the Yankees made...
And now we have him! Thank God for small miracles...  Richard  Go Dodger Blue!!!!      http://prozacdick.blogspot.com/   ... From: mbenn2571...
Barry should do some serious time, his baseball records taken off the books, and baseball should ban him like they did Rose. His trainer, Anderson, should...
Joe was supposed to be a classy guy, but the first hint was him crapping on the Yanks as he went out the door, with his nose up at 5 million bucks, and this...
Yeah, I'm very disapponted in Joe. I would have never seen this coming. Just proves you never know who to trust. ... From: Greg <gdh1937@...> Subject:...
I am in the process of reading it now and it is not as "over the top" as the media has portrayed it (not surprised)Â It is not reading as a "tell all" from...
I always thought that Joe Torre handled himaelf professionally and like a true gentleman!I'm sorry to hear/see him like a typical immatue,egocentric athlete...
Torre is a class act. It was the Yankees who crapped on him. You don't cut a man's salary and when he declines the cut say he left. They pushed him out. Didn't...
One thing that people haven't said is that he signed the contract to write the book in 2006 before any of the stuff that happened at end of 2007 season. From:...
Torre is a better manager than Girardi. However,he is no longer a class act. The Yankees made him a very good offer,and he turned it down. Joe knew what was...
I have to admit I am having a hard time deciding where I stand on this issue. I love Joe and the job he did as manager. After the merry go round manager...
A-Rod tested positive for anabolic steroids in '03, SI.com reports From SI.com: Rodriguez's name appears on a list of 104 players who tested positive for...
