Especially since at first base, 37 isn't exactly over the hill, but it just seems like giving long contracts to free agents is exactly what we want to get away from. It doesn't really matter since we're jumping right back to that model head first this off season. I think they'll go for broke over Sabathia, and make a power play for Teixeira for sure.Fernando Alejandrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11051242696406856273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315155203706829641.post-1465512913111859632008-10-28T10:49:00.000-07:002008-10-28T10:49:00.000-07:00why not 8?

Youkilis is still in his arbitration years and Lowell still has 2 years left on his contract with a no-trade clause. But I agree with you. pay him whatever he want for 6 years, maybe throw in a 7th year club option.Fernando Alejandrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11051242696406856273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315155203706829641.post-52114410601781624602008-10-28T09:09:00.000-07:002008-10-28T09:09:00.000-07:00I say give him six years and all the money he want...I say give him six years and all the money he wants.
