->   Actually, I think he's one of the few players worth keeping.  But I do
->   agree that all contracts are getting out of hand.
I'm not saying to get rid of Pudge.  God no, we need him.  Just that his 
number
restrict what else we can do, which is why the starting pitching is the same 
as
it was last year 'cept for Ken Hill (which I think was a mistake).
I will miss Jim Leyritz, though.  I liked him a lot.  I'll make sure to watch
him when Boston comes in town.
->   I've heard before that they hang on to him for his team leadership.  But
->   7 million IS a lot to pay.
I'll buy the leadership part.   He's still good, but not worth his salary, me
thinks.
