He's 32 years old. Discuss.

Edit: I looked at about half the first page and didn't see an MLB Offseason thread, but now I see that it's pretty far down there. Oops. Mods feel free to delete this and put something in that thread if you feel like it.

I just copied/pasted this into the offseason thread.

I really don't get this. What are they going to do with GMJ now?

Congratulations Angels, you now have 9 years and $122 million tied up in a pair of 32+ center fielders. How much money do they have to just throw around?

Wow this one would be bad if it was 1 year 16m, as it is it's just shocking.

right now the White Sox are real pissed and are now lookin at Andruw Jones and Aaron Rowand harder

SuperUberBob · #9 11-22-2007, 04:27 AM

I thought for sure they'd try to get Andruw Jones and move him to right or left field.

Whatever though. 16M/year for a past his prime CF is sick. What a year to be a free agent.

does this mean Willits is going to be a Marlin?
